Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: C
Since I dont which parts are played by Taka and which ones by Yoda I will name them guitar 1 and 2.
BPM:115
Key:C major
Guitar 1 (main riff)
e|------------|------------|------------|----------------|
B|------------|------------|------------|----------------|
G|-------0----|-------0----|-------0----|-------0--------| repeat until breakdown
D|-3----------|-3----------|-2----------|-2--------------|
A|------------|------------|------------|----------------|
E|----1-----1-|----1-----1-|----0-----0-|----0-----0-----|
Guitar 2 (main riff)
joins after abouz 20 seconds
(the open g-string is in the song but not necessary. If you use a
pick it might not be very convenient so leave it out if you want)
e|-10--7-7-7/10-10\7-7-7-7/12-12\7-7--8--10-10-------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------8-----------------|
G|-0------------0-----------0-------------0----------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
repeat 4 times, then do this:
(the first note is the last note of the previous part)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-8--8--8--8\---5--5--5--5/---10--10--10--10\----5--5--5--5-----|
G|-------------0-------------0-----------------0-----------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
then go back to the slidy part, repeat 4 times and play the fill again.
Repeat this pattern until the build-up
Later,the parts on the fifth fret of the b string will be varied
slightly:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-8--8--8--8\---5--5--5--5/---10--10--10--10\----5---5-6-5------|
G|-------------0-------------0-----------------0-----------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------.----------------------------------------------|
or
e|---------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-8--8--8--8\---5---5-6-5\----10--10--10--10\----5--5--5--5-----|
G|-------------0-------------0-----------------0-----------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
This build-up is played two times, at about 2:40 and again at 4:05,
before the epic distortion part. The second one is actually twice as long,
so you basically play what Ive tabbed twice. Feel free to mess with the
Am-Asus2-A7sus2 part though like they do on the recording.
Guitar 1 (distorted)
e|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

Guitar 2 (probably distorted too)
e|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-5-5-5-5-5-5---------|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
B|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-5-5-5-5-5-5---------|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
G|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
D|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
A|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
E|-----------------|---------------------|-----------------|
The build-up might not be fully accurate but it sounds about right and has easy fingering.
At the end of the song there is a part similiar to this but with one guitar playing something jangly
which Im going to add later.
After the first breakdown guitar 1 plays a slighly varied version of its previous part and also adds notes
from the C major scale in between.
The distortion part is basically guitar 1 carrying and guitar two tremolo picking its main part. Octaves might
be involved there, too, but I dont have the time to look in it right now. Also, the breakdown thing before the
quiet part with the distorted bass is sort of hard to tab because of the bass and the heavy distortion.
