Band: Hell is for Heroes
Tabber: Rozzer
Tuning: Drop-D
This tab is the complete song (all riffs
etc.), and you may wish to play the verse
chords slightly differently, but I think
it works best as shown.
Awesome song by an awesome band, enjoy!
INTRO
Clean with echo
e|--------------- B|---------------G|---------------D|-6-7-9-(9)s14--A|---------------D|---------------
e|------------------- B|-------------------G|-------------------D|-6-7-9-(9)s14-12-11A|-------------------D|-------------------
The two parts above are faint, the second bit
kind of overlaps the end of the first bit (you'll
know when you hear the cd!)
Then, clearer part...
e|--------------------------------B|--------------------------------G|--------------------------------D|-6-6-6-7-7-7-9-9-6-6-6----------A|-----------------------9-9-9-7-7D|--------------------------------
e|----------------------------------------------B|----------------------------------------------G|----------------------------------------------D|-6-6-6-7-7-7-9-9-14-14-14-12-12-12-11-11------A|----------------------------------------------D|----------------------------------------------
VERSE
Clean
e|-------------------------------B|-------------------------------G|-------------------------------D|-11(×8)--11(×8)--9(×8)--11(×8)-A|-09(×8)--09(×8)--7(×8)--09(×8)-D|---------09(×8)--7(×8)--09(×8)- play 4 times
(I've written above chords in an odd
way, '09' means '9', and '00' means '0'
- just trying to line it up with the eleven!)
CHORUS
Distortion
e|------------------------------ B|------------------------------G|------------------------------D|-4(×8)--7(×8)--0(×8)--7(×8)---A|-4(×8)--7(×8)--0(×8)--7(×8)---D|-4(×8)--7(×8)--0(×8)--7(×8)--- play twice
BRIDGE BIT
Clean
e|----------------- B|-----------------G|---------9-11----D|----11-----------A|--9----9------9--D|----------------- Play 4 times
VERSE 2
Same as before
CHORUS 2
Same as before
BRIDGE BIT 2
Clean
e|------------------------- B|-------------------------G|-11(×8)--9(×8)--11(×16)--D|--X(×8)--X(×8)---X(×16)--A|--9(×8)--7(×8)--12(×16)--D|------------------------- Play twice
e|------------- B|-------------G|----------9--D|----6----7---A|---4---------D|--4-----7---- Play twice
ENDING SECTION
e|------------------------------ B|------------------------------G|------------------------------D|-4(×8)--7(×8)--0(×8)--7(×8)---A|-4(×8)--7(×8)--0(×8)--7(×8)---D|-4(×8)--7(×8)--0(×8)--7(×8)--- play 4 times
Over the top of the last 2 times (of the above)
another guitar plays this...
e|---------------------------B|---------------------------G|---------------------------D|-6-7-9-6----6-7-9-14-12-11-A|--------9-7----------------D|--------------------------- (play twice)
(The rhythm part then continues, and the second guitar
plays...)
e|-------------------------B|-------------------------G|------14-13--------------D|--6-5-------14-11-(~11)--A|-------------------------D|------------------------- play 3 times
(They use vabrato to sustain that
last 11 note)
(I'm aware there's two guitar parts,
and in places the lead is simply a repeat
of the intro riff, and I haven't always
indicated when this occurs.)
