Max Bemis Chords & Tabs

Version: 1 Type: Tab

Lowman Tab

I found the chords by watching a live version of Max playing Loathing a.k.a.
Lowman where he has a capo on the 8th fret the only difference in that
version is the break down where he plays it a little different but for the
album version the breakdown sounds like the one I have posted. The tab is
correct excluding the breakdown but it sounds so similar neither you nor
anyone else should be able to tell the difference. Lyrics are up and the
strum pattern is simple he does a basic up down up down strum pattern and a
quick 3 or 4 speedy stroke on the Am7 and the variation of the Fsus2
whenever they show up in the song. I put a * on the D string under them to
indicate the chords. The chords are below the word he sings when they
transition; I did my best on the breakdown it was hard to match the words so
I just matched the word he was on when he slightly transitions. I hope this
helps I know I couldn't find a tab anywhere so I tabbed it myself.
