EFFECTS
This is tricky because of all the guitar tracks on the record,
so here a rough expression of how the combinations come across.
Intro - Chorus & mild compression
Verse1- Mild distortion
Chorus- Fuzz w/the tone turned down
Outro - Bluesy at the start, getting fuzzier all the time.
If you have any additions/corrections especially about the lyrics,
please e-mail me at D.C.Byron@hw.ac.uk
I hope I have done this song justice in this transcription. The number of
tracks makes transcribing it a nightmare, but I think I got all the
important bits.
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 SUEDE 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.
