This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

Person: Matt Veneklase

song: Farther

artist: Third Eye Blind

tab: Song: Farther

Artist: Third Eye Blind

Tabbed by: Matt Veneklase

/ = slide up.

h = hammer on.

I've tabbed out the bassline for this song also because parts

of it don't have any guitar, just bass, and I play the bass

parts on my guitar.

Bassline into:

G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|-------------------------|-------------------------|
A|-------------------------|-2--2--2-2--2--2--2-2--2-|
E|-3--3--3-3--3--3--3-3--3-|-------------------------|
G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|-------------------------|-------------------------|
A|-3--3--3-3--3--3--3-3--3-|-3--3--3-3--3--3--3-3--3-|
E|-------------------------|-------------------------|

Bassline 1st verse:

G|-------------------------|--------------------------|
D|-------------------------|--------------------------|
A|-------------------------|-2--2--2-2--2--2--2-2h3/5-|
E|-3--3--3-3--3--3--3-3--3-|--------------------------|
G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|-------------------------|-------------------------|
A|-3--3--3-3--3--3--3-3--3-|-3--3--3-3--3--3--3-3--3-|
E|-------------------------|-------------------------|

Repeat this 4 times. After playing 2 times the guitar comes in:

The bass issilent for the 1st 3 measures of the second verse.

Bassline 2nd verse:

(Talking to myself...)

G|-------------------------|
D|-------------------------|
A|-3--3--3-3--3--3--3-3--3-|
E|-------------------------|
G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|-------------------------|-------------------------|
A|-------------------------|-2--2--2-2/5-------------|
E|-3--3--3-3/7-------------|-------------------------|

For the rest of the second verse and the chorus the bassline is the

same as the intro bassline (I think). That's all I've got so far.

If this transcription is correct then the lead parts are probaly based

on the G-major/C-lydian scale.
