Dreams Never End

Song

"Dreams Never End"

by New Order

from the album Movement

tabbed by Thomas Pashko

I wasn't seeing any accurate tabs for this song online, so I thought I'd submit the

correct one, since all the other tabs I've seen aren't even remotely close.

standard tuning

First is the intro on clean guitar

e|----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-0-0---0---0---0---------------------9-------9-------9---9---9--|
A|-----7---7---7-------7---7---7---7-7---7-7-7---7-7-7---7---7--7-|
E|-----------------9-9---9---9---9--------------------------------|

The strumming pattern doesn't always repeat exactly, he sometimes occasionally changes

when he picks the higher note versus the lower note. Listen to the song for those changes.

I find the easiest way to play this part is just to hold my fingers in this chord formation...

e|---|
B|---|
G|---|

D|-9-|

A|-7-|

E|-9-| ...and just remove my finger from the D string when an open note

needs to be played.

Then the distorted guitar comes in:

e|-------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------|
E|-7---5---0---2---2/7---7/5-5---5/7-0---0---|

then it plays the same thing, just an octave up

e|-------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------|
D|-9---7---2---4---4/9---9/7-7---7/9-2---2---|
A|-------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------|

Then the clean guitar begins strumming these chords

e|-----------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------|
D|-9--9-9--9-9-9-11--11-11--11-11-11-| x3
A|-7--7-7--7-7-7--9---9--9---9--9--9-|
E|-9--9-9--9-9-9-11--11-11--11-11-11-|

then

e|--------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------|
D|-14--14-14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14-|
A|-12--12-12-12--12-12-12--12-12-12--12-12-12-|
E|-14--14-14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14-|

this chord change actually happens at the very end of the measure on the third and final

repetition of the previous chord progression; listen carefully to the song for where

that change happens.

The lead/fill thing over that final chord is

e|--------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------|
G|-------14--------14--------14--------14--------14-|
D|----14--------14--------14--------14--------14----|
A|-12--------12--------12--------12--------12-------|
E|--------------------------------------------------|

then the verse

e|---------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------|
D|---9-11-9-11-11-9-11-----9-11--9-11-11--9-11-|
A|-0-0--0-0--0--0-0--0--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x-|
E|---------------------10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-|

and the 'chorus'/instrumental part is

e|------------------------|      |-------------------------------|
B|------------------------|      |--------------7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
G|-9--/7-7--6--4-6--7--4--|      |-6--6-66-6-6--7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
D|------------------------| then |-7--7-77-7-7--7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
A|------------------------|      |-7--7-77-7-7--5--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
E|------------------------|      |-5--5-55-5-5-------------------|

And it just alternates between those verse and chorus parts for the rest of the song.
