TEARS

h = hammer on

p = pull off s

s = slide up/ down eg G----5---7----

~ = whammy or really quick bend up and down a few times

b = bend up

r = release bend

X = Dampen

The main riff for this song that I have worked out

is not accurate to what Mr squire plays, but it does

sound ok if you play with the song, there are two which

you vary at your own discretion, or when song changes.

Riff 1, played in verse:

h p p

E----------2--2--2-3-2-0---------------------------------------

B-------3-----------------3------------------------------------

G-----2---------------------2-----0------------h-b-p-----------

D---0---------------------------2---2--0--h---0-2-3-0----------

A-----------------------------3------2---0-2-------------------

E--------------------------------------------------------------

Riff 2, at end of verse sort of, play twice:

on third time go to next riff when reach line below

E--------------------------------------|-----------------------

B--------------------------------------|-----------------------

G----h-p----------0-----0--------------|-h-b-p-----------------

D--2--0--2--0----0---0-2-0----0--------2-------0---h---0-2-0---

A--------------3------------3----3--------3--2----0-2----------

E--------------------------------------------------------------

oh yeah and just before it gets going at about 2:14 on your

CD player it goes with distortion, not to heavy, then you can

clearly hear four chords struck, they are:

Am G Fmaj7 G

E------------------------------0----3------0------3------------

B------------------------------1----3------1------3------------

G--------0---------0-----------2----0------2------0------------

D----------2---------0---------2----0------3------0------------
