Blindside - Teddybear guitar tab

blindside

Teddybear

off their self-titled release

on Solid State and their

Empty Box EP on Day-Glo records

by Matt Boes

This starts with a picked chord sequence:

E|----0-------0

B|--0--0-----0-

G|-2-2--2---3--

D|3------3-2---

play it twice, but remember you will play it much more.

The bass kicks in(I'll write a separate bass tab) and plays for a bit,

and the guitar comes in after "have no fear, Saviour that's me"

with 4 more of the beginning chord sequence strums.

Kick in distortion and strum

E|0

B|0

G|2 "you call on my name"

D|3

----

E|0

B|0

G|3 "and I heard you"

D|2

and then hit the distortion pedal off and strum the opening

chord pattern 12 more times.

Then Christian yells "I'll never become your teddybear!!!!!!"

play F

E|--x---

B|--x---

G|--x---

D|33x333

A|33x333

E|11x111

wait for bass and play again

wait for vocals and play again

then play

A A# A#/E

D|7--8--8----7-8-8

A|7--8--8----7-8-8

E|5--6--0----5-6-0

then play the F and A-A#-A#/E 2 more times and then play the F

and play

D|7-5-7-8-7-5

A|7-5-7-8-7-5

E|5-3-5-6-5-3

then play those sequences again

The bass plays for a bit

after "savior that's me" hit this harmonic(touch the string at the fret

but don't press down and pluck it)

B|5-

G|-5

then the rest is pretty much the same as above except there is a new

guitar line at "when you cry..."

it goes

A|-------3/4/5-5-5---------------

E|0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0-3/5-5-5

that goes a few times and there is a bass/guitar solo at the end that

goes

A|--7-6---5-4---------7

E|0-----7-----5-0-0-0--

and that plays for a bit and then I'm no teddybear again and

you've got a really cool song done.
