------------------------------------------------------------------------------- More Than A Feeling - Boston ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Radar/Spay (with some help on the solo with one of my friends) Email: radar_loves_you@yahoo.com 9/9/2008: Tab has been updated and a couple of mistakes fixed and typos also fixed Tuning: Standard Verse- Played on a 12 string guitar, but acoustic or clean will do e|--------3-2-------------------------------------------| B|----3-------3------3-----3----3-----------------------| G|------2----------0-----0------------------------------| D|--0---------------------------------------------------| x5 A|---------------3-----2--------------------------------| E|----------------------------3-------------------------| Then do this one e|--------3-2-----------0---------------3----------------------------| B|----3-------3-----3-----3---3-----3-----3---3----------------------| G|------2---------0---0-----0-----0---0-----0------------------------| D|--0----------------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------3---------------2------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------| Now here's where things get interesting. There's a distorted guitar that does this: Note: The bends are half step bends e|----------------------------------------------------| B|--12b--12--12b--10--12b--10h12p10-------------------| G|----------------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| Now underneathe the riff above, the acoustic/clean guitar is playing this until the chorus e|----------------------------2-----------------------| B|------3--------0--------3-----3---3-----------------| G|----------------------2---2-----2-------------------| D|----2---2----2---2--0-------------------------------| A|--0-------------------------------------------------| E|-----------3----------------------------------------| Chorus-Okay, the thing about the chorus is that it's a fairly simple chord pattern, but everyone seems to have a different style of playing it. So I'll only give you the basic riff to it, and I'll let you add/take away so you best match your playing style e|-------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------| G|-------5-5---9-9-9-9--7-7------------------| D|--5-5--5-5---9-9-9-9--7-7------------------| x5 A|--5-5--3-3---7-7-7-7--5-5------------------| E|--3-3--------------------------------------| Now the ending for the 6th time slightly differs e|--------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------| G|-------5-5---8------------------------| D|--5-5--5-5---8------------------------| A|--5-5--3-3---6------------------------| E|--3-3---------------------------------| We couldn't really figure out the ending of the chorus so it's not there. We know it starts with two G chords and two C chords and that's it Pre verse e|----------------------------------------------------| B|----3-----3------------3-----3---3------------------| G|------2-----2---2----0-----0------------------------| x2 D|--0-----0-----0-------------------------------------| A|-------------------3-----2--------------------------| E|-------------------------------3--------------------| Verse- e|--------3-2-------------------------------------------| B|----3-------3------3-----3----3-----------------------| G|------2----------0-----0------------------------------| D|--0---------------------------------------------------| x5 A|---------------3-----2--------------------------------| E|----------------------------3-------------------------| Then do this one e|--------3-2-----------0---------------3----------------------------| B|----3-------3-----3-----3---3-----3-----3---3----------------------| G|------2---------0---0-----0-----0---0-----0------------------------| D|--0----------------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------3---------------2------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------| Pre-Chorus e|----------------------------------------------------| B|--12b--12--12b--10--12b--10h12p10-------------------| G|----------------------------------12----------------| D|----------------------------------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| Pre-chorus for acoustic/clean e|----------------------------2-----------------------| B|------3--------0--------3-----3---3-----------------| G|----------------------2---2-----2-------------------| D|----2---2----2---2--0-------------------------------| A|--0-------------------------------------------------| E|-----------3----------------------------------------| Chorus- e|-------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------| G|-------5-5---9-9-9-9--7-7------------------| D|--5-5--5-5---9-9-9-9--7-7------------------| x5 A|--5-5--3-3---7-7-7-7--5-5------------------| E|--3-3--------------------------------------| Play for the 6th time e|--------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------| G|-------5-5---8------------------------| D|--5-5--5-5---8------------------------| A|--5-5--3-3---6------------------------| E|--3-3---------------------------------| Okay, now the solo. Even though you probably still don't have a slightest clue what to play after the chorus...O.o There's a harmony to this one, and I'll put up the main lead and I'll put a box around places where harmonies accompanies then type out the harmonies seperatly. e|-------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--------7--7-8-7h8p7-----8b-----8-7-5h7p7---5-7-7------------------| G|--6-7-9--------------9-7------7-----------7-------7----------------| D|-------------------------------------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------| e|---|--------------------------|----------------------------------| B|---|--8-7h8p7-----------------|-7---7-8-7h8p7--------------------| G|---|----------9-7-9b-7-6----9-|---------------9-7----------------| D|---|----------------------7---|----------------------------------| A|---|--------------------------|----------------------------------| E|---|--------------------------|----------------------------------| Box 1 ^ e|--|---------------------|---------------------------------| B|--|--10b---10-8-7h8p7---|-7-----8-7-5h7p5---5-------------| G|--|-------------------9-|-----7-----------7---------------| D|--|---------------------|---------------------------------| A|--|---------------------|---------------------------------| E|--|---------------------|---------------------------------| Box 2 ^ e|-------------------|--------------17b--|----3--2-----2---------| B|----7-5h7p5--------|--14h15p14---------|----0--3--3--3---------| G|--7---------7-6-7--|-----------16------|----0--2--0--2---------| D|-------------------|-------------------|----0--0--2--0---------| A|-------------------|-------------------|----2-----2------------| E|-------------------|-------------------|----3------------------| Box 3 ^ Harmony to box 1 e|---------------------------------------------| B|--12-10h12p10--------------------------------| G|--------------12-11-12b-11-9------12---------| D|------------------------------11-------------| A|---------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------| Harmony to box 2 e|-------------------------------------| B|--14b---14-12-10h12p10---------------| G|-----------------------12------------| D|-------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------| Harmony to Box 3 e|--------------13b-------------| B|--10h12p10--------------------| G|-----------12-----------------| D|------------------------------| A|------------------------------| E|------------------------------| Anyways, the solo is a blast to play when you get the hang of it. And just to be clear, The two guitars are always playing, one of them just seperates at times to do the harmonies Pre verse e|----------------------------------------------------| B|----3-----3------------3-----3---3------------------| G|------2-----2---2----0-----0------------------------| x2 D|--0-----0-----0-------------------------------------| A|-------------------3-----2--------------------------| E|-------------------------------3--------------------| Verse- e|--------3-2-------------------------------------------| B|----3-------3------3-----3----3-----------------------| G|------2----------0-----0------------------------------| D|--0---------------------------------------------------| x5 A|---------------3-----2--------------------------------| E|----------------------------3-------------------------| Then it does this before the final chorus. It's with distortion. And I didn't have the patience to tab out the lead for this part. So there's some homework for you e|--2-2--------------------| B|--3-3--------------------| G|--2-2--------------------| D|--0-0--------------------| x4 A|-------0-2-3-2-3---------| E|-------------------------| Now the lead before the chorus becomes weird e|----------------------------------------------------| B|--12b--12--12b--10-10h12p10-12b--10h12p10-----------| G|------------------------------------------12--------| D|----------------------------------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| This still plays under the riff above e|--------3-2-----------0-------|---------3-------|---------------------| B|----3-------3-----3-----3---3-|-----3-----3---3-|---------------------| G|------2---------0---0-----0---|---0---0-----0---|---------------------| D|--0---------------------------|-----------------|---------------------| A|--------------3---------------|-2---------------|---------------------| E|------------------------------|-----------------|---------------------| Play this twice^ Chorus- e|-------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------| G|-------5-5---9-9-9-9--7-7------------------| D|--5-5--5-5---9-9-9-9--7-7------------------| A|--5-5--3-3---7-7-7-7--5-5------------------| E|--3-3--------------------------------------| Now you let the chorus go on for as long as you want it too after you play it 6 times. Play it twice more, or play it 10 more times, doesn't matter. Anyways, I realize that some of the little leads in the song are missing, they don't really matter though. Anyways, have fun. | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note ===============================================================================
