Song

TALLMAN - www.tallman.org

This song was tabbed by Adam Muirhead (madaemanon@yahoo.com).

Drop D Tuning (DADGBe)

Drop D (Low to High - DADGBe)

This song has two guitar parts,

Since I don't know two two apart,

I'll include whatever I can of either

In one tab.

INTRO:

D-5*-7*---8*-9*---5-7*---8*--7-|
A------------------------------|
D------------------------------|

guitar one plays this

D-0*-|-5-7-8-7*-|-------|
A-0*-|----------|-1-3-7-|
D-0*-|----------|-------|

^g2 ^g1 ^g2

D-0*-|-8-7-5-7-8-7-7-9-|
A-0*-|-----------------|
D-0*-|-----------------|

The verse riff is only one guitar,

but I can't hear it very well so I can only guess.

Here's my guess:

e---------------------------------|
B---------------------------------|
G---------------------------------|
D---------|-----------------------|
A-0-5-0---|-12-7-3-7h8p7--0-5-0---|
D-------0-|---------------------2-|

^repeat this a couple times

after all the verses.

e-----------------------|
B-----------------------|
G-----------------------|
D-0-0-3-2-1-0-3-2-1-2-2-|
A-0-0-3-2-1-0-3-2-1-2-2-|
D-0-0-3-2-1-0-3-2-1-2-2-|

this is the plam muted part after both verses.

It's close, if not correct.

This is the riff for

"And we're filtered through the sive..."

D-12*-12-12-12-12--12--12-12-12-|
A-12*-12-12-12-12--12--12-12-12-|
D-12*-12-12-12-12--12--12-12-12-|

followed by:

D-3-3-3-3-3/7-7-7-7-|
A-3-3-3-3-3/7-7-7-7-|
D-3-3-3-3-3/7-7-7-7-|

The next part is tricky, you have to get your

timing and your picking in check.

D-----------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------|
D-0-12-0-12--0-12-0-12-0-12-0-12-0--|

It's something like that followed by

D-3-3-3-3-3/7-7-7-7-|
A-3-3-3-3-3/7-7-7-7-|
D-3-3-3-3-3/7-7-7-7-|

I have no idea what the last riff in the song is...
