SPARTA - COLLAPSE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

tuning: Dropped D
There seems to be a lack of Sparta tabs on UG. So here's a tab on what I think is
the best song of Wiretap Scars. I decided to figure out both guitars for all you
kind people. the verse for the second guitar is all on the D string, and it moves
up and down the neck alot. people might think it would be harder to play it like
this, but listen to the record and that's what he's doing. Ok, enough bitching
like a bitch, here it is.
Guitar 1 (clean tone, almost like a piano)

Guitar 2 comes in with this while Guitar 1 repeats the above again. Both guitars
continue this until chorus.

Interlude (clean) do two times and on the last time slide the very last note to
the 17th fret really fast.

Verse for both guitars repeats again.
Than the chorus again.
Now here's the part with the little keyboards in back. Both guitars play Guitar
2's verse riff while this keyboard goes in the background. I've arranged it for guitar.

That's it.
