HORRORSCOPE
===========
I've seen a few requests for this band, and this is a really easy song
so I thought I'd post it...
Tune (6)=D
Intro: (in the video, it looks like DD's actually playing it on a
12-string bass or whatever, but if you're just screwing around with the
guitar this sounds OK...)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-0--3--------0--3--1--0--------0-3--------0--6--5\--0-------------------
-0--3--------0--3--1--0--------0-3--------0--6--5\--0-------------------
Then the guitar fades in as the above fades out, very PM:
-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
-----------------|-----------5---6-|-----------------|-----------6---5-|
-0-2-3-2-0-2-0-2-|-0-2-3-2-0-5-0-6-|-0-2-3-2-0-2-0-2-|-0-2-3-2-0-6-0-5-|
-0-2-3-2-0-2-0-2-|-0-2-3-2-0-5-0-6-|-0-2-3-2-0-2-0-2-|-0-2-3-2-0-6-0-5-|
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
The riff to end all riffs...
-----------------|------------------|
-----------------|------------------|
-----------------|------------------|
-----------------|------------------|
-0-------5~~-----|-0-0------5~~-----|
-0--/6-3-----6-3-|-0-0-/6-3-----6-3-|

Then the verse riff: (PM all but the 1/4-notes, I think)
--------------------------------------------------------------------|
--------------------------------------------------------------------|
--------------------------------------------------------------------|
--------------------------------------------------------------------|
-0-0-3-0-6--5-3-|-0-0-3-0-6-5-3--|-0-0-3-0-6--5-3-|-0-0-3-0-6-5-3-5-|
-0-0-3-0-6--5-3-|-0-0-3-0-6-5-3--|-0-0-3-0-6--5-3-|-0-0-3-0-6-5-3-5-|
e e e e q e e e e e e e e q e e e e q e e e e e e e e e e
Then the cool riff, the verse, and then the chorus bit:
-----------|-------------|
-----------|-------------|
-----------|-------------|
-5---------|-3------2--6-|
-5-----0-0-|-3--0-0-2--6-|
-5-----0-0-|-3--0-0-2--6-|
h. e e q e e q q
Play this once, then the cool riff, then the chorus bit 2x, then
the riff after the intro, followed by some D5 punches, which continue
with the following over the top...
-------------|------------|-------------|------------------|
-------------|------------|-------------|------------------|
-------------|------------|-------------|------------------|
-------------|------------|-------------|-----7------------|
-/5~~~~~-3/5-|-5/6-5~~~~~-|-/5~~~~~-3/5-|-6/8---8-7--b8r7~-|
-------------|------------|-------------|------------------|
h. e e q h. h. e e e e e q e q
Then the solo, which is mostly bends, tapping; basically just adlib in
the same key, more or less. I don't know exactly how it goes, but if
someone *really* wants it I'll have a go at figuring it out.
That's about it. It's a really easy song, but it sounds pretty cool.
I'd really like to see more tabs for groups like Overkill on here--
I know a bunch more stuff from Horrorscope which I'll post if anyone's
interested, as well as some of the older stuff from The Years Of Decay,
Under The Influence, Taking Over, etc.
I don't have my guitar with me now, so if anyone has any corrections
(or better still, Carcass tabs...), please e-mail them to me...
Thanx,
Matt

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 OVERKILL 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.
