More tabs for Void @ 911Tabs
If you're mechanically and rhythmically savvy with this song, it'll come naturally.
First things first, this is in an Ebsus4 tuning.
Eb-Bb-Ab(sus4)-Eb-Bb-Eb
Having learned this by ear, I tried my best to get it close enough to the voicings that
are in the chords.
Beginning:
eb|------------0------|------------0------|
bb|--------0-------0--|--------0-------0--|
ab|------0------------|------0------------|
eb|----4--------------|----0--------------|
bb|--5----------------|-------------------|
eb|-------------------|--5----------------|
eb|------------0------|--------4--5--4--0---|
bb|--------0-------0--|--------0--0--0--0---|
ab|------0------------|------0-0--0--0--0---|
eb|----4--------------|----0----------------|
bb|--5----------------|---------------------|
eb|-------------------|--5------------------|
This is the main gist of the song.
You do the 2nd system of arpeggiated chords where necessary.
After all that, you get to this progression that builds up to the cadence:
"loosen and stretch its ancient strings...
"brush my thumb against it soft
eb|------------0------|------------0------|
bb|--------0-------0--|--------0-------0--|
ab|------0------------|------0------------|
eb|----2--------------|----7--------------|
bb|--0----------------|--5----------------|
eb|-------------------|-------------------|
until it sounds the way I feel."
give it life or give it pause."
eb|------------0------|--------4--5--4--0---|
bb|--------0-------0--|--------0--0--0--0---|
ab|------0------------|------0-0--0--0--0---|
eb|----4--------------|----0----------------|
bb|--5----------------|---------------------|
eb|-------------------|--5------------------|
And you do that wherever necessary.
The chorus, I had a bit of trouble with. The lead guitar helped me out a lot though, but
when I play it how I interpret it, it sounds okay:
"Fill the void in me now..."
eb|--9--9---7---5---4---5--0----|
bb|--0--0---0---0---0---0--0----|
ab|--7--7---5---4---2---4--0----|
eb|--0--0---0---0---0---0--0----|
bb|-----------------------------|
eb|-----------------------------|
"Making love to me girl"
eb|--5--5---0---0---0-------|
bb|--0--0---2---3---5-------|
ab|--4--4---0---0---0-------|
eb|--0--0---2---5---7-------|
bb|-------------------------|
eb|-------------------------|
"Red light cruising the night"
eb|--5--5---4---5---7------7----|
bb|--0--0---0---0---0------0----|
ab|--4--4---2---0-------0--0----|
eb|--0--0---0---0---4------0----|
bb|-----------------------------|
eb|-----------------------------|
"red light getting me home"
eb|--0--0---4---5---7-------|
bb|--7--7---5---0---0-------|
ab|--0--0---0---4---6-------|
eb|--9--9---7---5---7-------|
bb|-------------------------|
eb|-------------------------|
And back to the original chords up top.
The second time around after the chorus, it goes to this interlude, and I just sort of
made it up on the spot with the same lead lines in the song, so bare with me, or correct
me. Correcting me would be much appreciated:
eb|--10--10----12----5---5---7-7----|
bb|--8-- 8-----10----3---3---5-5----|
ab|--10--10----12----5---5---7-7----|
eb|--10--10----12----5---5---7-7----|
bb|-(0)-(0)---(0)---(0)-(0)--0-0----|
eb|--------------------------0-0----|
(The ghost notes can be in there if needed for a more fuller effect. I don't hear
anything wrong with putting that extra Bb bass in there..)
eb|--7--7-----10----3----3----5--5------|
bb|--6--6-----8-----0----0----0--0------|
ab|--7--7-----10----2----2----4--4------|
eb|--6--7-----8-----3----3----5--5------|
bb|--6--6-----8-----3----3----5--5------|
eb|--6--6-----8-----0----0----0--0------|
And that's basically the whole song.
If you find mistakes, please let me know and I will change them immediately.
Thanks.
