~-My Dying Bride-~ --For You-- Tuning is down 1+1/2 steps Low to High: C# F# B E G# C# Time Signature: 3/4 G-1 is Lead Guitar G-2 is Rhythm Guitar Transcriber: Tom Colvin (ManWithTheDogs) Hello all MDB fans! I wanted to make a contribution to The 's Metal Community and i figured a tab would do the trick. This is my favorite MDB tune and when i decided to learn it i was shocked and appalled by the only "For You" tab available. It's horrendous!! This tab is much better and it's complete. It's also the first song i've ever tabbed out so i hope i didn't mess anything up. I won't bother with tabbing out palm muting when it's a simple song like this, you should easily be able to hear it for yourself. If you have anything you would like to say to me, feel free to email me at DBYHTG@hotmail.com Thanks! As far as this riff goes, i slide from note to note because i think it sounds better and fits the tone of the song. Im not sure if that is how it is actually played. I leave the decision up to you...
