Assassins Of The Light - 3 Inches of Blood
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Old Rasputin
Email: [email protected]
Tuning: E Standard - E A D G B e
Note: Sometimes I feel it necessary to notate rhythm; my conventions are as
follows:
W = whole note/rest R = rest
h = half note/rest
q = quarter note/rest /
e = eighth note/rest o/o = repeat previous bar
s = sixteenth note/rest /
h.= dotted half note
Tied note values are connected with an underscore.
example: s__(s) (a 16th tied to another 16th)
anything under: /--3--\ is a triplet
Double bar lines indicate the end of parts.
Bar lines occur every 4 beats.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Watch the ties on this one! Almost every single phrase in this tune
starts on the "and" of beat 4, which is why each section begins with a pick-up
note. (the Intro and Outro are the only exceptions) Similarly, the last note
of each section (appearing on the "and" of 4 in the last bar) is actually the
pick-up to the next section.
If you are unaccustomed to reading ties, remember: you don't re-strike
the note below the parenthesis. For example, the note/chord appearing below
this - (e) - would be held through from the previous note and not actually
stuck with the right hand.

Riff 1b: (right channel harmony part)
Now we return to Riff 1, but in bars 5-6 and 9-10 (0:55 and 1:05, respectively)
the right channel guitar plays a harmony instead of that B power chord that is
normally played.

Solo:
Ok, the rhythms here really have to be listened to - most of the bends
are slow, but peak out on specific beats. Usually you're holding the
original note for a bit before bending it. I /really/ wish i was do-
ing this in standard (staff) notation right now; TAB sucks sometimes -
but if you can read rhythm and/or can actually hear, you'll be ok.
