The Birthday Massacre - 'Holiday'
Tab by Corey Hunter: 17th Dec 2007
Gtr I (D A D G B E)
Guitar is Drop D tuning
Although there isn't any guitar in the Verse sections, I've done
a Bass Style part that utilises single notes with palm-muting.
The palm-muted bits in the Bridge section are basically white noise.
To achieve this sound, press a little harder than normal whilst retaining
the chord shapes.
Intro / Chorus Riff
