Guitar Tab (G)
Lower C,G,C,F,A,d tuning... very low ;-)
Heard this song on the Primal PS2 game and liked it instantly. Here it is.
legend:
x= muted string/ harmonic (gives you that nice scratchy sound, just rest a finger
the string and strum. It may take a lil practice to get it down... but its worth it)
/= slide (slide from one fret to another)
#= hammer on (after playing a note, rapidly pushing down on another fret without
again. Used for fast paced songs)
(= pull off (while holding down on a fret bend the string in one direction and
go. Lets you play an open after a fret quickly and with a nice sound. Also good for fast
songs.)
^= bend (bend the string back and forth to get a wah wah effect without a pedal.)
You won't need most of these for this song but they're handy to know and good for your technique.
