I would like to start by saying this is my favorite song off of my favorite album by Sevendust.
Its deff a looney song (the way its played), but the result was some weird/beautiful chords.
I also have to thank Darren Davis for his video on YouTube. The way we play the song
different
in some aspect, and i tabbed it out my way, but if it wasnt for him, i couldnt have
out
the proper tuning, and such.
Tuning:
Bb F Bb Eb Ab Db
A variant drop Bb tuning, with the last 2 strings matched with the 5th notes instead of
4th than 5th note.
Db|-0----0---0---------------0--3----3------0-------------0----------|Ab|---1----0----3---3------5-------0-----0----0-----0---1------------|Eb|---------------3---3---------------------------3------------------|Bb|------------------------------------------------------------------|F |------------------------------------------------------------------|Bb|------------------------------------------------------------------|

Continously bend the 4's on the F string, and start to release the bend (but dont)
right before you hit the 4 on the Bb string. Palm mute the chords
Chorus
Now these are some weird chords so bare with me

Repeat parts and you got the meat of the song
Then you go into the long piano part
Tabbed for guitar
Db|-12--10-8--7--5--3--5--7-8-7--0-0---------------------------------|Ab|----------------------------------3-------------------------------|Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------|Bb|------------------------------------------------------------------|F |------------------------------------------------------------------|Bb|------------------------------------------------------------------|

Ending chords
Almost the same as the mid section chords, one chords different (and weird)
Db|-0----0----0--------0----3----0----0------------------------------|Ab|-0----0----0--------0----3----0----0------------------------------|Eb|-6---10----8--------3----0---10----8------------------------------|Bb|-6---10----8--------3----3---10----8------------------------------|F |-4----8----6--------1----4----8----6------------------------------|Bb|------------------------------------------------------------------|
And last but not least...That little distorted slide near the end
Db|------------------------------------------------------------------|Ab|------------------------------------------------------------------|Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------|Bb|-10b--/-13v-------------------------------------------------------|F |------------------------------------------------------------------|Bb|------------------------------------------------------------------|Bend the 10 and slide it to 13 give it a slight vibrato
And on that note, thats the whole Sevendust- Burn.
Ill leave you to figure out the exact order because its not difficult :)
