Song: Only Child By Steven Wilson Album: Insurgentes Tabbed by Donnet Güemes Ovando ----------------------------------------------- In this song, the bass kicks in before any of the guitars, a first guitar comes in during the first chorus, and a second distorted guitar (possibly tuned in DROP D) enters after the first chorus. Listen to the song to know where each part goes. ----------------------------------------------- / - Slide up \ - Slide down ~ - Let ring x - Mute note h - Hammer on p - Pull off ------------------------------------------------ Bass.

entirely sure if it plays in this tone or an octave lower, in wich case would be tuned in drop D, and would go like this: Verse:
