I decided to re-tab my earlier cherub rock tab because, basically, it wasn't
very good. Anyways, here it is:
----12-12---12-12---12---12-12---12-12-12----- repeat 6x,
---------------------------------------------- clean guitar,
-----9--9----9--9----9----9--9----9--9--9----- straight eighths
---------------------------------------------- except for tie
-----7--7----7--7----7----7--7----7--7--7----- where the space
--0-------0-------0------------0----------0--- is
------------------------------------- 4x with heavy dist.,
------------------------------------- lots of guitar noise,
-----9-9---9-9---9---9-9---9-9-9----- then play:
-------------------------------------
-----7-7---7-7---7---7-7---7-7-7-----
---0-----0-----0---------0-------0---
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----13-13---13-13---13---13-13---13-13-13-----
-----------------------------------------------
-----11-11---11-11---11---11-11---11-11-11-----
---0-------0-------0------------0----------0---
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----16-16---16-16---16---16-16---16\----------
-----------------------------------x\----------
-----14-14---14-14---14---14-14---14\----------
---0-------0-------0------------0--x\----------
then play Riff 1 twice:
vib.
------------------------------------
------------------------------------
--11\9-----13/14---13----11\9-------
------------------------------------
---9\7-----11/12---11-----9\7-------
-------0-0-------0----0-0-----0-0--- and then these two triad chords:
--------------------
--------------------
---2---2-x----------
---4---4-x--2---2---
---5---5-x--4---4---
------------5---5---
then Riff 1 once along with Riff 1a variation, just don't pull
off of the 9 on the A string and slide back up to the 11th like
this:
Riff 1a:---------------------|V
----------------------------|------------------------------
----------------------------|------------------------------
--11\9-----13/14---13----11-|-11/13-----13/14---13----11---
----------------------------|------------------------------
---9\7-----11/12---11-----9-|--9/11-----11/12---11-----9-- ...etc
-------0-0-------0----0-0---|-------0-0-------0----0-0-----
(see chords formations at the end of the file:)
