Title: He Rides
Artist: Decree
This song really caught my attention the first time I heard it. It
didn't take long to tab out. Here are the symbols I use:
*=natural harmonic
h=hammer on
p=pull off
s=slide
b=bend
~=vibrato
w=whammy bar
^=accent
r=let ring
Intro

D|-2--2------2--2------2--2-----|0h2-----|
A|-2--2------2--2------2--2-----|-----2--|
E|-0--0------0--0------0--0-----|--------|
The main riff is repeated 4 times, but the fill changes each time:

And then the song moves to the chorus:

E|-5--5-------3--3-------0--0--|
Then a mini-solo is played followed by the chorus again which is
followed by another mini-solo. Here are the two mini-solos:

After the second mini-solo, a variation of the chorus is played.

This variation is immediatley followed by the next part, Riff 2.

After Riff 2, several solos follow. The solos are separated by
Riff 2, which is supported by the bass.

After the solos are played, the drums start to build speed while
the guitar plays this.

B|---------15p14p12--------|
G|-----------------15p14p12|

This part gets faster with the drums. When the drums reach their
fastest, the guitar part changes.
Outro

G|-12-15-12-15-12-15|
D|------------------|
A|------------------|
E|------------------|
This part is repeated several times, speeding up each time, finally
matching speed with the drums. Tremelo picking is required. Then
the drums and bass and guitar all stop. Two beats later, the
guitar enters with this:
Intro 2

E|-----------5-8-8b10-8p5---------------------|
B|-8b10-8p5h8------------8p5------------------|
G|--------------------------8p7p5-------------|
D|-------------------------------7p5----------|
A|----------------------------------7p5-------|
E|-------------------------------------8p5----|
The song is repeated with variations of the fills, mini-solos, and
solos. The outro repeats, but instead of going back into the song,
the guitar ends on an E chord with feedback. Listen to the song and
you can pick out the variations.
Soon, I'll post more Decree songs.
-Dillon
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 DECREE 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.
