(if you have the lead then please post it!)> "Now They'll Sleep", Belly
Changes:Here's the revised edition of my tab for "Now They'll Sleep" by
Belly. I've Figured out the beginning as best as i could with an
acoustic guitar. I'm working on Tom's part with the D chord. The lead
stuff should be easy enought to figure out, but i'm not good at that stuff.
Can someone tell me the effects settings on the song? <especially how to
get that axial crunchy sound in the F G phrase.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BELLY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
