Tuning: Modified Drop B (B,F#,B,E,F#,C#)
Notes: Amazing song that was just a bonus track if you got the deluxe edition
of their album, Last Parade. This song was originally done by Clint
Lowery's solo band, Hello Demons Meet Skeletons, on an acoustic, but
he re-did it for Call Me No One on an electric with a little more
instrumentation, but it's basically exactly the same as the original
version. I've been trying to learn this song since I heard it and I
think, nearly 2 years later, that I finally got all the parts down
fairly close to how it's played. It's nowhere near 100%, it's really
hard to hear the guitar over the vocals in the chorus, but this is
my interpretation of what I hear. I'm basically tabbing this for
myself for future reference in case I forget it since I know not
a lot of people know of this song. Another song that'll end up as a
lost gem by Clint Lowery. But, for those who want to learn this song,
hopefully this will set a good guideline for you.
Also, note the tuning, it's standard Drop B except the 2nd string is
tuned down an additional full step.
