Hey everyone. Big OLP fan here. While OLP playes like everything
tuned down 1/2 step, i am way too lazy, let alone not nearly skilled enough
to tune down properly. Everytime i do it sounds pretty bad. So this
tab is written in STANDARD tuning (EADGBe).
Now this song is syncopated, which means the notes are played on the
off-beats. So you’ll have to listen to the song to pick up the rhythem.
But it sounds great.INTRO: (this is played all through the song at different times)
e———9-8-9h-8p-9h/6——–9-8-9h-8-9h/6–
B–9-9-9—————–9-9-9—————–
G———————————————-
D———————————————-
A———————————————-
E———————————————-
e———9-8-9h-8p-9h/6———–6—-
B–9-9-9—————–9-9-7-7—-9—
G—————————————
D————————————– 2x
A—————————————
E—————————————
that weird thing on the ‘e’ string with the hammer pull off and slide
is a quick trill. you will have to play with it, but listen to the song
and you will catch on quickly.
VERSE:
F# D#
She builds her own satellite
C# C#
From an old rusted chair . . .
This chord progression repeats until the intro comes in again. Then
the chords are played along with the intro.
here are the chord forms:
F# D# C#
e———————-
B–11——8——6—-
G–11——8——6—-
D–9——-6——4—-
A———————-
E———————-
This song basicaly uses that intro, and these chords. This isn’t
everything obviously, they jam out quite a bit, but i believe they stay
pretty close to that intro
h=hammer
p=pull off
/=slideAgain, I wrote this in STANDARD tuning. Enjoy! Oh yeah, if you havn’t
yet, if you have this album, leave this song on for like 20 minutes and
there is a hidden track. It’s just that guy talking to a machine, but
it’s kinda freaky weird. But hey, i was bored. Enjoy the tab, add to
it if you want!
