When They Come For Me by Linkin Park
When They Come For Me
Riff: C#5 C5
Verse 1:
I am not a pattern to be followed
The pill that I'm on is a tough one to swallow
I'm not a criminal, not a role model
Not a born leader, I'm a tough act to follow
I am not the fortune and the fame
Nor the same person telling you to forfeit the game
I came in the ring like a dog on a chain
And I found out the underbelly's sicker than it seems
And it seems ugly, but it can get worse,
Cause even the blueprint is a gift and a curse
Cause once you got the theory of how the thing works
Everybody wants the next thing to be just like the first
Pre-Chorus 1:
And I'm not a robot, I'm not a monkey
I will not dance even if the beat's funky
Opposite of lazy, far from a punk
Y'all ought to stop talking, start trying to catch up mother f***er
Chorus 1:
And all the people say
Aaaaaaaah aaaaaaaah
Try to catch up mother f***er
Aaaaaaaah aaaaaaaah
Verse 2:
Lauryn said money changes situations
Big said it increase the complication
Kane said don't step, I ain't the one
Chuck said that uzi weigh a mother f***ing ton
And I'm just a student of the game that they taught me
Rocking every stage and every place that it brought me
I'm awfully underrated, but came here to correct it
And so it ain't mistaken I'ma state it for the record
Pre-Chorus 2:
I am the opposite of wack, opposite of weak
Opposite of slack, synonym of heat
Synonym of crack, closest to a peak
Far from a punk
Y'all ought to stop talking, start trying to catch up mother f***er
Chorus 1:
And all the people say
Aaaaaaaah aaaaaaaah
Try to catch up mother f***er
Aaaaaaaah aaaaaaaah

version 2
Tuning: D G C F A D
Tuning....Drop D
During the intro, when the tapping is all that's going, it sounds like a
guitar with a phaser on or something. Goes a little something like this:
Mike's Part:
Intro Part 1:
e\------------------------------------------------------------------/
B\------------------------------------------------------------------/
G\------------------------------------------------------------------/ x2
D\-3--3--3-------3-3-3-------3--2-----------------------------------/
A\-3--3--3-------3-3-3-------3--2-----------------------------------/
D\-3--3--3-------3-3-3-------3--2-----------------------------------/
D D D D U D D D
Once the drums kick in, the guitar changes a little bit to suite the drums.
Intro Part 2:
e\------------------------------------------------------------------/

A\-3--3--3----------------3--3--2-----------------------------------/
D\-3--3--3----------------3--3--2-----------------------------------/

Then after everything fades out for about 10 seconds, it comes in more powerful this time.
Chorus/Verse:

D\---3~-3~-2~-------------------------------------------------------/
A\---3~-3~-2~-------------------------------------------------------/
D\---3~-3~-2~-------------------------------------------------------/
I don't know if the guitar or the bass should play through the verse but if
you want to play the guitar it's just the above repeated throughout it.
The above is also played through the vocalizing part, which I call the
chorus.

I don't exactly know how often this lick repeats, but this is all.
This guitar part begins at 2:54.
I am not a pattern to be followed

(03:13-04:35)
Guitar 1 [distorted;delay -> tapping part with wah-wah effect]
Guitar 2 [distorted;delay]
Guitar 3 [slightly distorted with a lot of reverb and delay]
So Guitar 3 basically plays the same part til the end of the bridge, this is also the part Brad plays
on the live version (so hard *cough*).
e--------------------------------------|
B--------------------------------------|
G--------------------------------------|
D--------5~-----------------3~---------|
A--3--3------6--------1--1------3------|
E---------------4~-----------------1~--|

First part of the solo
e-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G------5--------3---------------------------------------------------------|
D----5---5----5---5--5--3h5p3/-1--1--0--0--0--1--3--3--3--1--0------------|

D---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Third part
(Either you make the slides like me for the first notes, or use a whammy pedal with 1+ Octave,
but then you have to play it on another string).
e---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B--/13--/15--/16--20--20--18--16h18p16--15--15----------15--16--18-18-18--15h16-15------------|

Straight from the solo you go into the tapping part with the following pattern:
e----------------------------------------------------------|
B----------------------------------------------------------|
G--17--13--------------19--15-------------17--14-----------|
D----------15-(16x)------------15-(8x)------------15-(8x)--|
A----------------------------------------------------------|
E----------------------------------------------------------|
Guitar 2 basically plays the stuff from the second chorus in the background until the
transition into the outro:
e--------------------------------------------------------------|
B--------------------------------------------------------------|
G--12b-10-12b--12b-10-12b--/3----------------------------------|
D------------------------------5--5--3h5p3/-1--1--0--0---------|
A-------------------------------------------------------3------|
E----------------------------------------------------------1~--|
Finally the outro:
Guitar 1 [clean; delay+reverb]
Guitar 2 [distortion]
Guitar 2 plays the the same as in the first chorus, you will figure it out.
Guitar plays the following, kinda arabic sounding part.
e-----------------------------------------------|
B------5----5---5-6-5---------------------------|
G--5h6----6---6-------6-5--5-5--5h6p3--5~-(2x)--|
D-----------------------------------------------|

D--------------------------------------------------------------8---5~--|
A------------------------------------------------------------------3~--|
E----------------------------------------------------------------------|
I am not a pattern to be followed
The pill that I'm on is a tough one to swallow
I'm not a criminal, not a role model
Not a born leader I'm a tough act to follow
I am not the fortune and the fame
Nor the same person telling you to forfeit the game
I came in the ring like a dog on a chain
And I found out the underbelly's sicker than it seems
And it seems ugly, but it can get worse
'Cause even a blueprint is a gift and a curse
'Cause once you got a theory of how the thing works
Everybody wants the next thing to be just like the first
And I'm not a robot
I'm not a monkey
I will not dance even if the beat's funky
Opposite of lazy, far from a punk
Ya'll ought to stop talking start trying to catch up motherfucker
And all the people say
Try to catch up motherfucker
Lauryn said; money change a situation
Big said; it increase the complication
Kane said don't step, I ain't the one
Chuck said that uzi weigh a motherfuckin' ton
And I'm just a student of the game that they taught me
Rockin' every stage in every place that it brought me
I'm awfully underrated, but came here to correct it
And so it ain't mistaken I'ma state it for the record
I am the opposite of wack, opposite of weak
Opposite of slack, synonym of heat
Synonym of crack, closest to a peak
Far from a punk
Ya'll ought to stop talking, start trying to catch up motherfucker
And all the people say
Try to catch up motherfucker
Oh, when they come for me
Come for me
I'll be gone
Oh, when they come for me
Come for me
I'll be gone
Oh, when they come for me
Come for me
I'll be gone
And all the people say
Try to catch up motherfucker
And all the people say
