In The Air Tonight


---------------------------------------------------------------------------- In The Air Tonight - Phil Collins ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is an instrumental version of In The Air Tonight, the famous song by Phil Collins. The guitar tabbed out here is playing the vocals. It sounds best on a distorted guitar. I've added the lyrics to help figure out the slides. Sometimes you have to slide to a note quickly and only sound the final note, sometimes you can let both sound out. The tab is based on this fantastic cover of the song by Adam Lee: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HW0VDHpQD0 I've tabbed it off that video, so if you're unsure about a part, just watch that as a guideline. Tuning: EADGBe / - Slide up \ - Slide down h - Hammer-on p - Pull-off ~ - Let ring CHORUS - I can feel it coming in the air tonight Oh Lord |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| |--7-7-7-7--5h7~-5-5-----5~-7---------|------------------------------------| |-------------------5/7------7\5-3----|----5/7--7\5~/7---------------------| |---------------------------------5---|--5---------------------------------| |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| I've been waiting for this moment all my life Oh Lord |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| |---7-7-7-7--5/7~\5-5----5~-7---------|------------------------------------| |--------------------5/7-----7\5-3----|----5/7--7\5~/7---------------------| |-5--------------------------------5--|--5---------------------------------| |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| Can you feel it coming in the air tonight Oh Lord Oh Lord |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| |---7-7-7-7--5h7~-5-5-----5~-7--------|------------------------------------| |--------------------5/7------7\5-3---|----5/7--7\5~/7------5/7--7\5-3-----| |----------------------------------5--|--5----------------------------5~~~-| |-------------------------------------|------------------------------------| VERSE 1 -
