Drop D tuning (for the Bass part at leaste)
The song is somewhere in the key of like c/g/f, that whole thing, (only a semi-tone
either way)
This is the way I'm pretty sure they play it live. I have the Beside You In Time DVD and
tried my best to watch their hands, and for the other stuff, like the piano part,
I just guess by ear. The solo that Aaron (NIN 2005-present live lead guitar) is less
than the one on the album, though the one on the album is of course a bit sicker. I
try to tab that one too, but for now this is the one I mainly know. Aaron uses one of
crazy lazer thingies that makes really long sustain like what Coldplay uses, but you can
similar affects with really high gain and a stead hand.
Notation
/ = slide
p = pull off
^ = bend
* = bend slightly then mute with your pick/finger almost directly afterwards, almost as
the sound is being canceled (it's the most chararceteristic/ recognizable expression of
note in the song)
(Main bass line throughout song)
! = vibrato
~ = sustain

(The bridge is Piano chords, but these guitar chords seem to fit well. I might be wrong
the exact timing of the chords because i'm doing this by memory and I can't listen to
song right now, but if you listen to it, you'll know when to hit and sustain the chords.)
I cannot go through this again...

Then comes the crazy swelling of noise and sounds as the climax, the main part of which is...
Bass Line + guitar riff 2

End song
Ahhh one of the longest tabs I've ever done but I had to get that off my chest, cause I
it out by ear and I sure was mighty proud o' myself, proud as Huck or Tom e'er would be!
hope you like it! And I hope I didn't mess up too much, I might have some errors in the
cause I might not have it quite note for note, but I'll check when I go home and
it if I can remember to.
