Don't Go Away (From the album "Black Butterfly") -------------------------------------- Tuning: Standard Pretty standard fare here, nothing too difficult. There could be three possibly four guitars playing on this one at different parts, but this tab is pretty much the simplified version of the song for one or two players. Sounds great played through acoustics as well. Not quite sure of the F#m in the chrous but I like the feel of it better than an F#. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t^ = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum Riff 1: |---------------------| |---------------------| |--6b7r6-4---6b7r6-4--| |---------------------| |---------------------| |---------------------| Solo: |------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------5-7--7b8r7--5--------------------------------| |---6h7p6--4--7---------------7-6-6--7p6--4--4b6r4----4/11~--| |--------------------------------------------------4---------| |------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------| Verse 1: Riff 1 Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1) Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1)In my darkest state of mind, I am riddled with despair.
