                      PISSANT 
               from Pisces Iscariot

             Transcribed by Adam Morris

   Tune guitar 1/2 a step down

   D# G# C# F# A# D# 
   
 MAIN RIFF  (These chord changes are quite fast)
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------| 
|-----------7--7-7/9-9-9\4---------------------------| 
|-2--2-5/7--7--7-7/9-9-9\4---------------------------|
|-2--2-5/7--5--5-5/7-7-7\2---------------------------| 
|-0--0-3/5-------------------------------------------| 

 VERSE RIFF
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------| 
|-------------7\----9\-------------------------------| 
|-2\----2\----7\----9\-------------------------------|
|-2\----2\----5\----7\-------------------------------| 
|-0-----0--------------------------------------------| 

For the weird bendy sound, just slide your finger up
the 5th string (G#, usually A) and bend a fairly high
fret up there :)

Then back to the main riff again for the chorus.

Then another verse and chorus, and then the song
changes, and gets interesting.

This riff is played a few times:

|--------------|
|--------------| 
|--------------| 
|-2------------|
|-2-----9--8---| 
|-0--0--7--6---|

Then this:
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------| 
|----------------------------------------------------| 
|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------|
|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------| 
|--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3/5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-------| 

 Then repeat this a few times.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------| 
|--7--7-7-7-7-5--5-5-5-5-----------------------------|
|--7--7-7-7-7-5--5-5-5-5-----------------------------| 
|--5--5-5-5-5-3--3-3-3-3-----------------------------| 
|----------------------------------------------------| 
  The back into the main riff and that is about it!

 No solo sorry
