Dream Theater - The Great Debate
Transcribed by Travis Lausch
This is the only song that hasn't been tabbed from Dream Theater's new
album, Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence, and I tabbed the other song
"Disappear". This is a break from my usual tab format, because I just
included the riffs, but not the solos, as I usually do, but this one
was too difficult to figure out. If you're really that desparate, you'd
just have to think "What would John Petrucci play?" and you'll get it...

All the rest you'll have to figure out on your own
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 DREAM THEATER 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.
