Deftones - "Beware (The Water)"

Tabbed by: Cory McKnight
Email: sic133mhz@hotmail.com

Tuning: Drop D

Ok, I'm doing this tab just so that people can play along with
this awesome song. I know for a fact that most of this is not
what Chino plays, but it's better than nothing. Stephen plays a
second seven string guitar tuned down to somewhere in the
neighborhood of drop Bb or something, but we won't worry about
that.

Intro: Just some static/feedback from Stephen's guitar, then the
keyboard part below comes in.

That's about all there is to it. The rhythm on the outro will take
a little while to get used to, but just listen to the song and you'll
pick it up. Hope you guys find this helpful, and don't forget to buy Deftones' new CD
