"Dreams Never End"
by New Order
from the album Movement
tabbed by Thomas Pashko
I wasn't seeing any accurate tabs for this song online, so I thought I'd submit the
correct one, since all the other tabs I've seen aren't even remotely close.
standard tuning
First is the intro on clean guitar
e|----------------------------------------------------------------|B|----------------------------------------------------------------|G|----------------------------------------------------------------|D|-0-0---0---0---0---------------------9-------9-------9---9---9--|A|-----7---7---7-------7---7---7---7-7---7-7-7---7-7-7---7---7--7-|E|-----------------9-9---9---9---9--------------------------------|
The strumming pattern doesn't always repeat exactly, he sometimes occasionally changes
when he picks the higher note versus the lower note. Listen to the song for those changes.
I find the easiest way to play this part is just to hold my fingers in this chord formation...
e|---|B|---|G|---|D|-9-|A|-7-|E|-9-| ...and just remove my finger from the D string when an open note needs to be played.
Then the distorted guitar comes in:
e|-------------------------------------------|B|-------------------------------------------|G|-------------------------------------------|D|-------------------------------------------|A|-------------------------------------------|E|-7---5---0---2---2/7---7/5-5---5/7-0---0---|
then it plays the same thing, just an octave up
e|-------------------------------------------|B|-------------------------------------------|G|-------------------------------------------|D|-9---7---2---4---4/9---9/7-7---7/9-2---2---|A|-------------------------------------------|E|-------------------------------------------|
Then the clean guitar begins strumming these chords
e|-----------------------------------|B|-----------------------------------|G|-----------------------------------|D|-9--9-9--9-9-9-11--11-11--11-11-11-| x3A|-7--7-7--7-7-7--9---9--9---9--9--9-|E|-9--9-9--9-9-9-11--11-11--11-11-11-|
then
e|--------------------------------------------|B|--------------------------------------------|G|--------------------------------------------|D|-14--14-14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14-|A|-12--12-12-12--12-12-12--12-12-12--12-12-12-|E|-14--14-14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14-|
this chord change actually happens at the very end of the measure on the third and final
repetition of the previous chord progression; listen carefully to the song for where
that change happens.
The lead/fill thing over that final chord is
e|--------------------------------------------------|B|--------------------------------------------------|G|-------14--------14--------14--------14--------14-|D|----14--------14--------14--------14--------14----|A|-12--------12--------12--------12--------12-------|E|--------------------------------------------------|
then the verse
e|---------------------------------------------|B|---------------------------------------------|G|---------------------------------------------|D|---9-11-9-11-11-9-11-----9-11--9-11-11--9-11-|A|-0-0--0-0--0--0-0--0--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x-|E|---------------------10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-|
and the 'chorus'/instrumental part is
e|------------------------| |-------------------------------|B|------------------------| |--------------7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|G|-9--/7-7--6--4-6--7--4--| |-6--6-66-6-6--7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|D|------------------------| then |-7--7-77-7-7--7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|A|------------------------| |-7--7-77-7-7--5--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|E|------------------------| |-5--5-55-5-5-------------------|
And it just alternates between those verse and chorus parts for the rest of the song.
