Tesselate – Alt J
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:Waldie
Notes: transcribed based on this piano tutorial:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kP7GF8IRa1c listening to it will give you a good idea
of how the Chorus should goes since its difficult to pick out from the actual song. The
O’s underneath the tab are for a bass beat on the guitar body if you are using an
acoustic guitar, this is to simulate a bass drum. The X in the verses is for a thumb slap on the
6th string for a snare effect.
I welcome any and all comments for improvements
