I must begin by stating that I am not a guitarist, but a drummer. This is my first tab
and I had much help from Jessica-Lyn‘s tab and the Amazing Slow Downer. Without those things,
this tab wouldn’t be here. Since I am not a guitarist, I can only guess if this is right. I tried
to match up my sounds with the song, and this is as close as I got. Use it as a reference only;
do what feels right and makes sense.
There are a couple parts where the 2 guitars play different things at once; I have tried
to make it obvious where this is. Any other parts are to be played by both guitars simultaneously.
A reverse bend is where you bend the string before striking it then release it after it
is struck, making a “dive bomb” effect. I don’t know how to make the high-pitched dive bomb sound,
so good luck on that!
I wish there were more tabs of this band. Here is my contribution:
Song: Damien
Artist: Stray From The Path
Tuning: Drop C
Key:
\ - Slide down
b – Bend
r - Reverse bend
* - Palm mute
. – Staccato(short)
