Numbers Pompeii Assembly (2006) Tabbed by Jess/Abongchong Comments/ratings would be appreciated, I'm not entirely sure on some parts so any help correcting anything that might need it would be cool. :) Otherwise, totally amazing song! Note: For the E5 in the chorus, play it so the root note is on the seventh fret of your string. And this site fucked up my formatting so the words won't be entirely aligned with the changes but I got it to go as best I could. Intro E|-/12------------| B|-/12------------| Then the rhythm plays on E and the lead goes something like (it's not exact but sounds to play along): E|---7---7---7---7---4---4---4---4---5---5---5---5---5---5--/7-5-4-0-| B|-5---5---5---5---4---4---4---4---5---5---5---5---5---5-------------| E F#5 A Came at you in silence, my back at the wall A I've seen those nights where you binge and purge E F#5 A Those locks on your doors tell me when you're crouched on all fours A Counting tile, losing bile and sleep E F#5 A It's just a diet, I've kept it quiet, even if you told all my family A And friends they would never believe it E F#5 A I think you're right, I can't believe it too A E That it's you, but it's you E|-/7-5-4-0- E5 A5 My problems hide in numbers that leave when I gag and heave B I weighed out every option, that scale's not fit for advice E5 A5 Medical language won't ever help to shape this if that B5 mind is just as frail as it's frame you know I'd leave it alone Rhythm sits on E, lead plays E|--12--------------------| B|-----12---9h10p9-10-9---| E A We can beat genetics, adopting new aesthetics for beautiful bodies A Figures ever-so-slender E A Taking control, oh. Oh, what a nice, nice thing. A E5 A5 Besides, my problems hide in numbers that leave when I gag and heave B And heaving's kind of hard with your hands tied round your waist E5 A5 Point out the obvious, tell me how dangerous B5 Then bundle every fight in an "isn't right" and leave it alone Outro section: Alternate between A5 and B5 for one bar each, and then when the cello comes in, between playing E and A for two bars each.
