Midtown - "Perfect" guitar tab
Cant tell you if this is right or not, but I just finished and it sounds
absolutely perfect. matter of fact this is my one of my ONLY tabs, but dont worry
i'm not a 14 year old starting out. Got a correction or comment or anything gimme
an email at killfurby@yahoo.com
the rhythm guitar is tuned down a half-step, the lead stays standard
s - staccato
. - palm mute
b - bend
r - release bend
Intro (lead) (all those last notes on this row are NOT hammered)
[s][s][s]
still the lead's intro...
[s] [s][s][s][s][s]
guitar 2 intro and verse riff (start intro w/ open chords, then leave 'em off)
4th time around on the verse...(4th and 8th notes in the last note played on the upstroke)
[s][s][s][s]
Bridge (play twice)
....s[s]ho[s]uld i have suc[s]cu[s]mbed to your courtesy....
chorus (play the last chord on 2nd time through only)
2nd verse
[s]
[s][s][s][s]
Bridge 2x
Chorus 3x
then... the modified chorus line
[s][s][s]
after this
without skipping a beat go from the last line to the verse riff 2 times
(background rhythm for the solo)
solo (lead guitar w/ standard tuning)
didnt do the whole staccato and vibrato thing for time's sake, you figure that part out,
cuz the rest of it's good...
rhythm part after the verse riffs (still during the solo)
[s]
chorus riff 2x
then
into the chorus one more time but play this at the end...
