NEWBORN

i was so desperate to figure this out; so i thought "why not" - there's no proper tab for it anywhere, so I took the responsibility to have a go myself!

ok. heres the tuning...
D A D Ab A E - then a CAPO on the 5th fret

(guitarists: I know that tuning sounds insane, but please persist; I'm 95% sure its right!)

s: slide
p: pull off



NOTE: I am going to tab individual notes, but you still strum all strings!! any gaps mean that they are just open strings!!


the first little bit comes in on "corpse" and goes like this: (remember, capo, fret 5)

"i'll be the corpse..." "useless"
|--7p0---------------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------5-7--------------------7--5--4----2s4--------------------2s4----|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| repeat, then chorus (remember what i said about stumming all strings, as well
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| as playing the notes that i've tabbed)


chorus

"like a neeeeeewboooorn"
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------3--5--8--3--5--------|
|--222222------------------------------------------------- --|
|--222222----------------------------2--4--7--2--4--------|
|--222222--------------------------------------------------- |

|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------3--5--8-5-4----------|
|--222222----------------------------------------------------|
|--222222----------------------------2--4--7-3-2----------|
|--222222----------------------------------------------------|

"whisper what..."
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------3--5--8--3--5--------|
|--222222------------------------------------------------- --|
|--222222----------------------------2--4--7--2--4--------|
|--222222--------------------------------------------------- |

|----------------------------0-----0-----0--------------u-----------|
|--------------------------0-----0-----0-----------------u----------| the "u" means basically, just do an upstroke/upstrum - but do it slowly; listen to the song
|------------------------0-----0-----0-----0~~~~~~-----u---------|
|--222222222222----------------------------------------u-- -----| end of chorus
|--222222222222-----------------------------------------u-------|
|--222222222222-------------------------------------------u---- |

repeat verse, then chorus again.



solo(ish) Note: that on this part, just play the tabbed notes i.e. don't strum all the strings

|----------------------------------------|
|------0---4---2---0------12---12----|
|---0-------------------0---------------|
|-0--0--0---0---0---0--0----0--------| repeat 4 times
|----------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------|

chorus, then end.

can't be bothered to tan the rest of the 15 minutes of the live version





give it a go; i'm confident it's right!!

Well done mate, been trying to work this one out for a while. Unfortunately the tunings not quite right. The G string (which you have as Ab), should be tuned to F#. Try the two chords on the words New - born:

new - born
I----------------0--------
I----------------0--------
I---2-----------0--------
I---2-----------0--------
I---2-----------0--------
I---2-----------0--------

I'm sure this is right, I haven't got any further with it though.

Sorry to bump this, but does anyone have a tab for the electric guitar for this song? I'm useless at tabbing and I'm too poor to buy the Asleep in the Back tablature book you see . . .
