SLIPKNOT - "gently2" Tablature
Official SLIPKNOT Tablature & Sheet Music »
~~~~~~
By: Slipknot
This Score tabbed by: Bill Dunn
Personal Notes: After over a week of playing back parts of the song over and over again, i finally got tb his song done in it's entirety. I used Power Tab Editor, and when i played it back, it sounded pretty close, but keep in mind that this is my interpertation, and im sticking to it.
Notes on this song: A very different (yet very pretty) song done by four of the same memebers of the band that brought you "Wait and Bleed," "Only one," and my personal favorite, "Snap." The introduction of this song is the only real hard part. The rest should come easy to you. Like all songs on the MFKR album, a lot of palm muting is done.
Tuning- All strings tuned down a whole step, 6th string down two whole steps (C G C F A D)
Introduction (no distortion)- only Gtr I plays first time, Gtr II comes in second time
Gtr I

Anything pissing you off in this tab?

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 SLIPKNOT 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.
