			     HIGHER THAN GOD - King's X
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Tabbed By : Isaias Garcia (TexasFury)

Tuning: Drop C#


=================================================================================

This radio single from "Tape Head" (1998) is very simple to play, although the
syncopated changes might trip up beginners. Doug (Pinnick) plays the riffs exactly the same
throughout, he doesn't add a single variation or ad-lib. In fact, the entire song is 
played one the E and A strings, and goes no higher than the 5th fret. Because of that, I'll simply
notate the riffs and identify them.

The chorus riffs consists of two measures: the first in 4/4 time, and the second in 2/3
time (4/4 + 2/4). They could also be thought of as 6/4, but it starts to get cluttered
at that length.

Riff #3 get played right before the solo, and is played once more to end the song.
