  • TUNING
     
    C# F# B F B E
  •  
    That's the bottom three strings tuned down three semitones and the third string tuned
    a tone with the top two string in standard tuning.
  •  
    NB: Change to a heavier string gauge to maintain nice, sparkly clean sound and avoid
    But if you don't care that much, save your money and buy booze

    INTRO
     
  • Time signature 6/8
     
    E E/G# A5 E
  • E |---------------------------------|
    B |---------------------------------|
    F |-5--------5--------6--------5----|
  • B |-5--------5--------5--------5----|
    F#|-5--------5--------3--------5----|
    C#|-3--------7-----------------3----|

    VERSE
     
  • Same progression, just strum away at those chords. Also, let the top two strings ring
    but on the A5 mute the 2nd string with your little finger. I'm not entirely sure about
    those strings ring out so try it with and without to see which sounds best
  •  
    CHORUS
     
  • "I hope you get through.. your heart sits too close to window"
     
    E D#5 C#5 A5 E
  • E |----------------------------------|
    B |----------------------------------|
    F |-5----------------------6----5----|
  • B |-5--------4--------2----5----5----|
    F#|-5--------4--------2----3----5----|
    C#|-3--------2--------0---------3----|
  •  
    Obviously this is all strummed but i'll be damned if i'm tabbing out the same chords
    and over!
  •  
    BUILD UP
     
  • "Your heart sits to close to the window, your heart sits too close to the window etc."
     
    E D#5 C#5 A5 E

    F#|-5----4----2----3----5----4----2----3----|
    C#|-3----2----0---------3----2----0---------|
  •  
    Again, this is strummed, I just haven't written it all out
     
  • WALL OF NOISE!!
     
    E
  • E |-0----------------|
    B |-0----------------|
    F |-5----------------|
  • B |-5----------------|
    F#|-5----------------|
    C#|-3----------------|

    Yep, just a regular E chord, what a let down! Apply liberal amounts of filth, almost
    done with a ProCo Rat distortion pedal and almost definitely doubled. I'm pretty sure the
  • is fuzzed up too to add some extra depth to the filth
     
    OUTRO
  •  
    E E/G# A5 E
    E |---------------------------------|
  • B |---------------------------------|
    F |-5--------5--------6--------5----|
    B |-5--------5--------5--------5----|
  • F#|-5--------5--------3--------5----|
    C#|-3--------7-----------------3----|
     
  • Same as intro; full circle. This is a great songwriting tool, as is the extreme
    dynamic preceeded by some sort of build up to create tension.
  • PLAY TOO ..
