Howler - Back Of Your Neck Chords & Tabs

HOWLER - BACK OF YOUR NECK

This song is pretty fun to play on guitar, and when you can play it properly you 
feel like a badass


Ok, so the intro goes a little bit like this. I know Jordan plays something 
different, but whatever:

e|-------7----7----7----7--7-------7----7----7----7--7-7|
B|-------------------------7-------------------------7-7|
G|----7h8--7h8--7h8--7h8---8----7h8--7h8--7h8--7h8---8-8|
D|-------------------------9-------------------------9-9| X2
A|-------------------------9-------------------------9-9|
E|-------------------------7-------------------------7-7|

Then the chorus

First part is the beginning only (And might possibly be just the bass)
(dist. on)
e|-------|7-----6-----7----|
B|-------|7-----6-----7----|
G|-------|8-----7-----9----|
D|-------|9-X12-8-X12-9-X24| X2
A|-------|9-----8-----7----|
E|--2-2-4|7-----6-----7----|

Verse goes like
(I think this is either clean or light distortion)
e|------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-8-8--8---8-8--888---5-5--5---5-5--555-13-13--13---13-13---131313-|
D|-9-9--9---9-9--999---6-6--6---6-6--666-14-14--14---14-14---141414-|
A|-9-9--9---9-9--999---6-6--6---6-6--666-14-14--14---14-14---141414-|
E|-7-7--7---7-7--777---4-4--4---4-4--444-12-12--12---12-12---121212-|

e|-------------------------|
B|-------------------------|
G|-13-13--13---13-13-131313|
D|-14-14--14---14-14-141414|X4
A|-14-14--14---14-14-141414|
E|-12-12--12---12-12-121212|

After twice of this, I think either the bassist or Jordan plays

A|--------------------|
E|-7~~-7h9-4~~-4h7-0~~| X2

Then Chorus again...
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/howler/back_of_your_neck_tab.html ]
e|-------|7-----6-----7----|
B|-------|7-----6-----7----|
G|-------|8-----7-----9----|
D|-------|9-X12-8-X12-9-X24| X2
A|-------|9-----8-----7----|
E|--2-2-4|7-----6-----7----|
Followed by the intro riff

e|-------7----7----7----7--7-------7----7----7----7--7-7|
B|-------------------------7-------------------------7-7|
G|----7h8--7h8--7h8--7h8---8----7h8--7h8--7h8--7h8---8-8|
D|-------------------------9-------------------------9-9| X2
A|-------------------------9-------------------------9-9|
E|-------------------------7-------------------------7-7|

Then there's a solo kind of thing I haven't got round to tabbing, but rhythm plays verse 
chords throughout the solo and at the end is the little Jordan/Bass riff

Then on the album version we have a little break, distortion off and it plays the verse 
barre chords, slowly

e|-7~~-4~~-7~~-|
B|-7~~-4~~-8~~-|
G|-8~~-5~~-9~~-|
D|-9~~-6~~-9~~-| X2
A|-9~~-6~~-7~~-|
E|-7~~-4~~-----|

And then we're back at the chorus...

e|-------|7-----6-----7----|
B|-------|7-----6-----7----|
G|-------|8-----7-----9----|
D|-------|9-X12-8-X12-9-X24| X2
A|-------|9-----8-----7----|
E|--2-2-4|7-----6-----7----|

And we finish with the intro riff

e|-------7----7----7----7--7-------7----7----7----7--7-7|
B|-------------------------7-------------------------7-7|
G|----7h8--7h8--7h8--7h8---8----7h8--7h8--7h8--7h8---8-8|
D|-------------------------9-------------------------9-9| X2
A|-------------------------9-------------------------9-9|
E|-------------------------7-------------------------7-7|
