                             The Night - Disturbed
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Michael Capanna      
Email: SpyderPB6@hotmail.com


As always...please do not copy this work and put it foward as your own. 



This is THE NIGHT.....COMPLETE. Those of you who have seen my tabs (Indestructible
and Criminal) know I take the time to do them right. This tab dervived from about 8
hours of combined research through live videos (5 different ones), actual recording,
and seeing them play it in person live one time.

My goal is a tab that not only sounds good but is played as Dan actually plays it and I
think when you compare whats below to what others put forth you will see that I indeed
have put a significant amount of effort into this. 

Dan has many variations in his palying style this song is no exception. He does differ
in Live and Recorded play ever so slightly, that is pointed out when I notice it.

As always I am soooooo far from perfect it isnt even funny so help a brother out and 
comment on this and let me know what you think isn't right becuase I want it to be right.
As far as I can tell, this is super close.

Feel free to Email me with comments/questions/rants/death threats.

Have fun with this one!!!!!!

The slides above are difficult to hear in the studio version, but listen hard. Live they
are cake to see, check out vids on you tube. Also the first chord does not have slides in
the studio version, but does when playing live, this is as per studio version. The slides
are VERY FAST. Listen hard, email me if you need help or have questions. All single notes
palm muted.

The (20) above starts on a huge bend and slowly releases. The following part with 
the 20's and 17's is a seperate bend each time you hit 20. It takes some getting

This last little lick above was by far the hardest part of the song to get down
please comment on this part. Will continue to work this part. The ending part however
is pretty much dead on IE from this part on ^--------------------------^

The last note (12~) is played on a loop and not live but you can do it if your recording
infact if you are you should play the entire looped outro which is a combination of a few
notes on the same string, email me if your interested in that I'll help you out.
