The Icarus Account
Anchors Away
EADGDd Tuning. Capo 3rd.
I would rather not shame this band's strumming
paterns by attempting to tab them, so instead I'll
just give you the basic chord forms the way I've heard/seen them.
The ending and outro are quoted because I dunno what you would call
this part of the song. A bridge perhaps? Irrelevant.
Just listen to the song and try to hear the little mutes and
fast strums Trey does. A very fun song to play.

"Ending Riff" (This ending part makes a heck-of-a-lot more sense when you listen/watch
Trey play it. Listen for the timing of the hammer ons to get the
strumming rhythm.)

"Outro" (if I lift up this anchor..)
Again, listen for the rhythms of how they play this ending part.
On the last few lines of the song you repeat the last 3 chords of the outro.
