------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stories We Build, Stories We Tell - Jose Gonzalez ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: E-mail: [email protected] Awesome song off his new record, figured I would share what I've worked out so far. Not 100% accurate, but this is enough to nail the background rhythm part that drives the song. Keep in mind that there is a bunch of lead playing that goes over top of this. There are easier ways to play some parts of these riffs, but some of these hammer-ons need to happen to get it to sound like the recording. Make sure to listen to the song to get the feel of the song down. Enjoy!

Listen closely to figure out where various points at which these riffs come into play, but this is most of the main song. He adds a few extra notes here and there, but this will get you 90% of the way. Thanks! ************************************ | h hammer-on | p pull-off ************************************
