Happy Pill Tab by 16 Volt


Artist: 16 Volt

Song:   Happy Pill

Tabbed by: Sara Howell aka digital_n1ghtmar3 (digital_nightmare@stonerrock.net)

Guitar Tab (G)

Lower C,G,C,F,A,d tuning... very low ;-)

Heard this song on the Primal PS2 game and liked it instantly. Here it is.

legend:
       x= muted string/ harmonic (gives you that nice scratchy sound, just rest a finger 
the string and strum. It may take a lil practice to get it down... but its worth it)

        /= slide (slide from one fret to another)

        #= hammer on (after playing a note, rapidly pushing down on another fret without 
again. Used for fast paced songs)

        (= pull off (while holding down on a fret bend the string in one direction and 
go. Lets you play an open after a fret quickly and with a nice sound. Also good for fast 
songs.)

        ^= bend (bend the string back and forth to get a wah wah effect without a pedal.)

You won't need most of these for this song but they're handy to know and good for your technique.
