Trust Company - Downfall

TRUSTcompany - Downfall From TRUSTco's Geffen debut, "The Lonely Position of Neutral" Tabbed by: Kyle Peacock (Iost) 06/25/03 thefallingsickness@yahoo.com Figured out by: Kyle Peacock and Jason Bodycott over the course of our junior year. Tuning: Guitar 1: C#-G#-C#-F#-G#-D# (Kevin plays in this tuning on every TRUSTco song on the record, it's just Drop C# with the B string dropped down an extra step, if you see my Hover tab you'll understand how nice it can be :-P) Guitar 2: C#-G#-C#-F#-A#-D# (James plays regular Drop C#) These tunings have been discussed ad nauseaum on the TRUSTco msg boards, and with Kevin and James themselves. This is their standard setup. James plays in Kevin's tuning only on Hover. Some of the new songs that they played live this winter and spring are in Drop C, and they have begun to play a few random songs (such as Figure 8) in Drop C as well. This is NOT one of them. That's not to say these transcriptions are necessarily 100% straight from the source, but after the 10 live TRUSTco shows we've been to, we'd like to think that's it's about 90% on the money at least. The main problem that I have with most tabs for this is the incorrect rhythm of the intro, the improper harmonics, and the complete lack of two guitar structure. :-p Intro: Guitar 1 and 2 (for best results, alternate your strumming, i.e. not just down) |---------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------5--5--5--5--5-| x 2 |--02202202-02202202-022022020--5--5--5--5--5-| |--02202202-02202202-022022020--3--3--3--3--3-| |--02202202-02202202-022022020----------------| Guitar 1 Continues with Intro 2x more while Guitar 2 plays |---------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------| |--9---------------------------10-10-10-10-10-| x 2 |--X--repeatedly----------------X--X--X--X--X-| |--7----------------------------8--8--8--8--8-| |---------------------------------------------| The x81010xx's and the x355xx's should be played at the same time. James is using some kind of wah pedal effect and maybe something else during his part (Guitar 2), but it sounds passable without it. Verse: No guitar Prechorus: i.e. "STEP DOWN!" Both guitars play the intro (the first two parts) Chorus: |-----------------------| |-----------------------| There seem to be some additional guitar parts |--------5--------------| x 2 overdubbed here, but they aren't really |--2-----5-----5-----0--| necessary. |--2-----3-----5-----0--| |--2-----------5-----0--| Post-chorus: Guitar 1 plays the intro again 2x, while Guitar 2 plays the other intro part 2x. Verse: No guitar again Pre-chorus: Yes, you play BOTH strings during the harmonic parts For the best sound, strum the harmonics (don't just downpicking). ONLY GUITAR 1 PLAYS THE HARMONICS |----------------------------------| |----------------------------------| |----------------------------------| |--22--------2-------22-------0--3-| |--22--55555-2-55555-22-55555-0--3-| |--22--55555-2-55555-22-55555-0--3-| ***** ***** *****
