Son of 'Cha!' >From "Here Comes The Zoo" Notes: - You don't have to be in drop d down 1/2 step to play this tune, but that's how Scott usually tunes, so that's how it's written out here - The last chord in the main riff needs some explaining. First, you hit the E note (d string) much harder than the other note. This can be accomplished with easy by pulling away from the strings right after you hit them with the pick. Then you need to worry about the bend, which again favors the lower string. Essentially, the lower string is bent more. I accomplish this by bending away from my nose, but at the same time rotating my freting hand so that it meets the neck at a 30 degree angle. Fool around with it until you find your method. - The lead guitar part in the refrain is the hardest damn thing to play - Email jmsam81@hotmail.com for questions Verse Riff Eb |------------------------- |---- Bb |------------------------- |---- Gb |--------5-----------5---- |--3b Db |--3--5--5--5--3--5--5---- then |--3b Ab |--3--5--3--5--3--5--3---- |---- Db |--3--5-----5--3--5------- |---- Chorus Riff (rhythm) Eb |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bb |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gb |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Db |--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1- Ab |--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1- Db |--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1- Eb |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bb |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gb |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Db |--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/8--8--8--8-- Ab |--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/8--8--8--8-- Db |--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/5--5--5--3/5--5--3/8--8--8--8-- Post chorus riff Eb |-------------------------- Bb |-------------------------- Gb |-------------------------- Db |--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3-- Ab |--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3-- Db |--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3-- Chorus Riff (rhythm) Eb |--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15--15-- (etc.) Breakdown Eb |-------------- |---- Bb |-------------- |---- Gb |--------5----- |--3b Db |--3--5--5--5-- then |--3b Ab |--3--5--3--5-- |---- Db |--3--5-----5-- |----
