Tabs done by me

[Pinball Wizard]

I thought I'd post some tabs that I made by ear, in the hope to make this forum less than stagnant. Please feel free to post your interpretations or criticisms... requests too.



The Darkness I Believe In A Thing Called Love

Opening Riff:

E --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G ----------------------------9---9---4--4---2--2------------------------------
D -------4--x--x--7---9----9---9---4--4---2--2-------------------------------
A -------4--x--x--7---9----7---7---2--2---0--0-----------------------2~~~
E -------2--x--x--5---7-----------------------------3~~~-- 5~~~-----------

Repeat.


muting and strumming may vary with your preference... and the timing/the rest of the song is something you'll have to figure out.



Comments are appreciated.

David Bowie Rebel, Rebel

This is an altered online tab, which I think sounds a little more rhythmic... after the first time you play the riff, replace the slide to 5 with just an open D string (0).

p= pulloff
r= release
s= slide
~= vibratto
b= bend
...= sustain or hold

E ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B ----------5----3----------5--5--------2p0---------------------------------
G ---------------------6----4--4----------------1----------------------------
D --s5-----------------------------2----------------2-----------------------
A ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Main Chords (A, D, Bm, Em)

David Bowie Heroes

Opening "Bend"... with high sustain, and delay (after plucking the first note).

E ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G ------14~~...............---14b16r14~~...........------------------------
D ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

REPEAT throughout (The main chords are D,G,C,Am,Em)...

That's the way I play it at least.

 

[Chizip]

[ILuvLarryMullen]

[JOFO]

[ILuvLarryMullen]

yes

Freedom Fighters- The Music.

Well, this song isn't technically out yet... the tangible single is released on Sept. 6, but I thought I'd take a crack at the tab from the notes I heard on the remix played on the Essential Selections show.

Main Bass line Riff:

E -------------------------------------------------------------------------
B -------------------------------------------------------------------------
G -------------------------------------------------------------------------
D -------------------------------------------------------------------------
A -------------------------------------------------------------------------
E ------5---5----0h3--------5---5----0h3--------5---5----0h3------

E --------------------------------------------------------------------------
B --------------------------------------------------------------------------
G --------------------------------------------------------------------------
D --------------------------------------------------------------------------
A -------3-3-3-3---5-5-5-5----------------------------------------------
E ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Repeat (the fast plucking of the 3rd and 5th fretted notes can be alternated to go 5, 3 instead of 3,5... just to give a nice alternating sound with the bass).

Chords (Same Rhythm as the Main Riff):

E----------------------------------------------------------------------------
B----------------------------------------------------------------------------
G----------------------------------------------------------------------------
D---7--7--7---5------7--7--7---5------7--7--7---5-----10-10-10-10-
A---7--7--7---5------7--7--7---5------7--7--7---5-----10-10-10-10-
E---5--5--5---3------5--5--5---3------5--5--5---3------8---8--8---8-

E --------------------------------------------------------------------------
B --------------------------------------------------------------------------
G --------------------------------------------------------------------------
D ---12--12--12--12-----------------------------------------------------
A ---12--12--12--12-----------------------------------------------------
E ---10--10--10--10-----------------------------------------------------

That's what I've tabbed so far. It's difficult to figure out notation when the remix is distorted and sampled. Oh well.

[discothequeLP]

i did a full tab on The Fly from Boston. did a pretty damn good job, too, if you ask me


if you want it, email me at: jezigster@msn.com

 

[mr mc sarcasm]

Yeah...the Fly tab from discothequeLP is good, but needs some adjustmants in the solo.........have to figure them out myselfe yet....but....most of the stuff is GREAT!!...THANX!!

 

[Ace#1]

... the tangible single is released on Sept. 6, but I thought I'd take a crack

Tangilbe singles & cracks? Say no more!!!! (marks Sept. 6 on man-calendar....)

 

[Pinball Wizard]

Haha!

NICE.

 

[discothequeLP]

Yeah...the Fly tab from discothequeLP is good, but needs some adjustmants in the solo.........have to figure them out myselfe yet....but....most of the stuff is GREAT!!...THANX!!

whats wrong with the solo?

 

[mr mc sarcasm]

In the beginning of the solo....you said that you play:

20--17--15---17

But when I listen to it I hear:

20----17--151515--17

But it's just some small adjustment, but I'm still working on getting the complete solo right (I'm not what you call a fast player)

 

[discothequeLP]

oh yeah...the number of times a note in the solo is played is up to you wink: )...just use the tab of a solo as a guide




i am 110% sure, though, about the 3rd chorus

 

[mr mc sarcasm]

He discotheque LP....I've started a u2 forum for musicians....if you're interested:
http://s4.invisionfree.com/U2_music_forum

and the fly is getting better.....and you are right, it's a good tab
