We have an official Carrion tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
guitar legend - dud = down up down
                ddd = down down down
                udu = down up down rotated
                < > = artificial harmonic
                 *  = palm mute
                 x  = hand mute (cover stirngs with hand)
                 +  = natural harmonic
 
I agree with Juz on this song,
there is no doubt about the fact that carrion
by parkway is one of their best work,
I love this song and i jam to it sometimes 3 to 4 times a day :).
 
bassically it's like a remake of what juz cook as done just it has
all the bits he left out or wasn't sure on.
I've done my best and re edited this b4 i've submitted it like
50 times. I spent ages goin over the song over and over again
trying to see if what i have tabbed out for you is acurate, and it
sounds almost 95% acturate but now i just hope that all of you agree
with that. please rate and comment. I've done my best so hope you enjoy the
tab :). thanx. Benny.

The fourth chord in the intro, needs the 5 and 4 flip. The way it it is originally posted sounds completely off to me. Doesn't me it is off.

I think the Intro should be: c#|---------------------------------------------| G#|----------------0----------------------------| E|-------5--------4-------9--------9---9---7---| B|---3---3---0----5---7---7----5-----7---7-----| F#|---3-------0--------7--------5---------------| B|---3-------0--------7--------5---------------| It matches the verse and sounds better.
