No Giving Up


Artist: Crossfade Song: No Giving Up Album: Crossfade Tuning: Drop B (B F# B E G# C#) Alright, this will be my first tab for Ultimate Guitar. I've submitted some tabs to where my username is Dani_Boy, so if you want to see my christian tabs you can check out. No Giving Up is a very uplifting song, and it is also a song with some neat guitarplay. does a lot of their stuff (maybe everything) with a 7-stringed guitar, but since i don't one I've tabbed this in Drop B. I also think that this song seems to be easier to play dropped mode. This song uses a lot of distortion for the intro/chorus stuff, pretty clean sound for verses and a wierd, cool effect for the solo. During the solo and a little bit into the you can hear the verse riff with slightly more distortion. As you can see I talk way too so let's get on with it. h = Hammer on p = Pull off b = Bend / = Upward slide \ = Downward slide (All slides quick and short) x = Scratching or muting (In this song only complete muting. You will have to stretch your index finger over the entire third fret, play all the third fret notes and mute the two strings with the same finger.)

At some parts it might seem a little bit confusing due to the "two notes" like 10, 12 and so on, but I don't think you'll have too much problems with that. ROCKS!!! God Bless, Daniel
