Song
STORY OF THE EYE by EYEHATEGOD (Southern Discomfort)
TAB by: Pez story_of_the_eye@start.com.au
TUNING: C#
This is another great EHG song that's easy to learn and play.
This song originally appeared on the Ruptured Heart Theory
single but has re-appeared on the 2000 album Southern Discomfort.
This album has a weird tuning to it, sort of 20-30cent above C#.
I used C# as a go between as all their other albums seem to be
tuned in that step. Strange.
The song is played in a clean, fuzzy tone.....
Intro:
E|-----------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------| C#|-----------------------------------| G#|-----------------------------------| C#|-8-10-3-5-3-5---8-10-3-5-3-5-7-6-5-|
Intro repeats twice then second guitar joins.
Stanza A1:
E|------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------| G|------------------------------------------| C#|------------------------------------------| G#|-8-10--3-5-3-5-7-6-5---8-10-3-5-3-5-7-6-5-| C#|-8-10--3-5-3-5-7-6-5---8-10-3-5-3-5-7-6-5-|
This stanza part is repeated a few times (i think it
only last for three passes) then Stanza A2 is played.
Stanza A2:
E|-----------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------| C#|-----------------------------------| G#|-----------------------------------| C#|-8-10-3-5-3-5---8-10-3-5-3-5-7-6-5-|
