[Disclaimer: All basses and guitars tuned as noted. All chords used are
power chords (e.g., C# is -x-4-6-6-x-x-) unless otherwise
indicated. These fan-authored transcriptions offer the basic
chords and structure of the songs, and are not complete scores.
Although some transcriptions may not have distinct parts for
each instrument, all are written for both bass and guitar.]
[Notes: For songs tuned two steps down (low to high, C F Bb Eb G C),
the notes/chords will sound two steps lower than notated. For
example, a chord marked "A" will actually sound like a "F".]
FIVE FINGER CRAWL - 'Dropped D' tuning, half-step down
=================
transcription: Kristoefur, Jeff, Ryq
Notes: For this song, Jeff tuned "half-step down, the low E a full step
below that." To use this tuning, tune the guitar one half step
down from standard, then tune the 6th string down an additional
whole step, resulting in (Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb); the lowest string
is commonly called "C#." The "intro/chorus 1 riff" is actually
played 12 frets higher than what is transcribed.
