------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BENEATH THE MIRE - Opeth ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: siegmeister1 Email: asiegel@uga.edu Tuning: *standard* I know most of the album is in DADFAE, but...this is in standard. the E string definitely isn't tuned down, and there's no reason to mess with anything else. Intro: from what i can tell, there are two guitars here but one is distinctly louder than the other one, which is pretty much inseparable from the keyboard melody. so, the notes in parentheses account for the second guitar, and i'd consider that part optional, but it does make it sound a bit richer i guess (my point being the stuff in parentheses is really just for your amusement; those notes are definitely in the song, but it's hard to tell...where they're coming from). pm- e|-------------------------------------------------------| B|10-10-10-10---(5-5-5-5)--------------------------------|

interested, i tabbed another opeth song that there didn't seem to be any decent existing tabs for, serenity painted death (which is version 2 on here, i think). ************************************ |
