Pain Of Salvation - Linoleum
Words and music by Daniel Gildenlöw
Transcribed by Travis Lausch
Guitars are seven-strings tuned to A E A D G B E (low to high)
This song is really more about groove than precision. Keep your playing loose.
Intro:
EIN! ZWEI! DREI!

Chorus:
Alright, this is a troublesome part for me because of the layering. Obviously, the main
riff of the song IS played. But there's also that ascending
progression that I can't really pick out. I'm arranging it here as if Daniel is playing
along with the main riff, but it could be that there are power chords in the
background, or that the progression is only outlined on bass while guitars keep playing
main riff unaltered, or it could even be Johan doing the outlining. I'm
basing finger positions on a live video.

^ flutter wah pedal. In music video, Daniel is touching the string
at various places without producing any harmonics which is something
I have seen him do in live videos during songs like
so he really
could be doing that too, but I'm sticking with wah since
sounds more
like what he's doing, and it's easier to perform that way

Bridge:
Johan plays a pretty consistent rhythm figure part while Daniel does a sort of
over it.
