We have an official In Waves tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Band:  Trivium
Song:  In Waves
Album: In Waves(2011)
 
 
This is Trivium’s first preview single from the fifth studio album. I think
this is Matt Heafy’s tribute to the
Disaster that happened in Japan early 2011… Not 100% sure on that though
 
!!!READ!!!
You could count this as the bass tab as well because the bass is basically
the same as the Rhythm all the way though except for the outro, which I have
added at the bottom as it’s slightly different.
 
Tuning: Drop C# (C#, G#, C#, F#, A#, D#)
(Tune all strings down ½ a step and then drop tune)

This tab is correct, tuning is right. Stop complaining, if you have a problem with the tab, do it yourself. Five stars, man.

No they don't dude, they play their new album in Drop C#. It's a difficult tuning but it's right

Heyho. The tab is pretty right, but the main Riff is played with a bend on 12th fret instead of a pull-off on the 15th. Here a vid, where Paulo is showing it on the bass. On the guitar it is the same: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKQBFfluU1k
