Je score:
Song Title: Take my scars Artist: Machine Head Tabber: BIG Dan Email: bigbadpartyanimal@hotmail.com ---------------------------------------------- Ok, this is written for a five-string bass in standard tuning (BEADG) although I think Machine Head probably use a four-string which is strung up with the low strings from a five string. I.e. BEAD. This isn't the whole tab, but it is pretty close and is definatly in the right key. Main riff: ------|------------------|- ------|.----------------.|- ------|.----------------.|- ------|------------------|- --12\-|-0-2-1-0-22-1-0-1-|- When the guitars kick in properly there's a fill every fourth time which goes like this. |------------------| |------------------| |------------------| |-------/5555/6666-| |-0-2-1------------| There's no bass in the pre-verse, although you can play a load of muted notes in time with the 'chansaw' guitar bit Verse: |------------------------| |------------------------| |------------------------| |------------------------| |-1-0---0-1-0---0-1-0h3--| Chorus: |-----------------------| |-----------------------| |-----------------------| |-----------------------| |-6-5---0-6-5---0-6-5-3-| Post-chorus: |--------------------| |--------------------| |--------------------| |--------------------| |-3--------3---------| I'm not too sure about the scratchy bit, the rhythm is a bit dodgy. |------------------| |------------------| |------------------| |------------------| |-0000-0-00-00-000-| It's something like that anyway, just play B in time with the tune. I don't know what to play during the solo, it could be the verse riff. That's what I use and it sounds OKish. Final fill: |-----------------| |-----------------| |-----------------| |-----------------| |-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-| Enjoy. If you've any comments or the like then email me. Don't bother telling me that the song's played in D just 'cause that's where you've always played it. It's in B and that's final.
