Exile Vilify by The National
Exile Vilify
Tuning: Half-Step Down
. = Palm-Muted
~ = hold note
^ = vibrate
p = pull off
h = hammer on
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
Like all the other tabs, this is my own interpretation of the song. The chords
are very accurate tho their meant to be played acustically and this
tab was taken from the studio verions which only contains piano and bowed
instruments. Also please check your tuning, this tab is for half-step
down tuning!
