great job on the tab. love the song, but seems like something was a little off in the chorus. i think it goes like this...
| Code: |
Gm C F D7
someday we'll meet beyond the stars
Gm C F F7
and it will be away from here
Gm C F D7
someday we'll meet beyond the time and the bars
Gm A#m F
and it will be away from here
etc... |

| it's definitely not a C. The A#m is correct. |

i apologize. should've been more specific.
it doesn't sound right if you play an open C
C=X32010,
that is correct. instead it sounds more accurate if you play
C=X355XX.
the A#m is more of an accent at the end of the chorus. also at the very end of the song, the final A#m is substituted for a C. hope this helps |

Actually it should be this:
| Code: |
Gm C F D7
someday we'll meet beyond the stars
Gm A#m F F7
and it will be away from here
Gm C F D7
someday we'll meet beyond the time and the bars
Gm A#m F
and it will be away from here
etc...

so you were half right, you play the C for the first line then alternate with the A#m. _________________ www.myspace.com/algoandtherhythms

Post subject: little lead parts |
|
|
I was just gonna come here and ask someone else for these, but then I started fiddling around and I think I figured it out. I'm pretty sure this sounds right, except for the beginning of the second lead part where I put it down as b|--0/5 etc. *Uhh, also about the second lead, you kinda have to figure out how many times each note is played. I didn't bother to count it out.* I hope that makes sense.
| Code: |
intro part:
e|--3/5-5-5---3/5-5-5---6-5-6/13--13/5-6-5-3-5-6-5-5/1--|
after first chorus:
e|------5-5-5-5-5-5-6-5-6/8-8-8-8-8-8-6-5-6-6-6-8-9-9-9-8-6/5-5-5-5-5h6-5-3-1-|
b|--0/5-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
solo
e|--3/5-5-5---3/5-5-5---6-5-6/13--13/5-6-5-3-5-6-5-5/1----|
e|--3/5-5-5---3/5-5-5---6-5-6/13---13-15---15-17-18-17-15-17-15-13-|

I play this on the b string starting at the 8th fret. I find it much more comfortable to play it like this:
First lead part
b--8/10-10-8/10-10-11-10-11/18--18-10-11-10-8-10-11-10--10/6--
After first chorus:
b--1/10--10-10-11-10-11/13--13-13-11-10-11-11-11/13-14-14-14-13/11-
(continued)
b-11/10-10-10-10-10-10h11-10-8-6---
Last solo part:
b-8/10-10-8/10-10-11-10-11/18-18-10-11-10-8-13-11-10--10/6---
(continued)
e-------------------------------------------15--15-17-18-17-15-17-15-13--
b-8/10-10-8/10-10-11-10-11/18--18--------------------------------------
You could play it either way. Whichever is comfortable for you. _________________ We shift eachothers body to accept the bullet. |

Thank you all for working this out. I've been wondering about the lead for some time. _________________ All I need are some tasty waves, cool buzz and I'm fine. |
