Secrets - Bloc Party Another Weekend in The City ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Scotch59 Email: scotch59@gmail.com Tuning: Standard EADGBe ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a tab for the Lead Guitar part to "Secrets" off "Another Weekend In The City" I know this tab is NOT 100% Correct, especially with the 1st and 2d Verse. If any part doesn't sound right please post a correction instead of a negative comment or a low rating, so I can fix the tab and make it 100% correct. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: I did not tab the intro Myself, all Credit goes to "The Alchemist" from his tabbing of the intro to this song, Which is here: http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/b/bloc_party/secrets_intro_tab.htm Intro: ------- Played Twice. e|-7---------------------------------------------------7-------------| B|----10-9--------7-------------------7----7-10--7-10----------------| G|---------9-9--9---9-7-----------7-9---9----------------------------| D|-----------------------7-9--7-9------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------| e|-17-14------------------------------------------------------14---17---19--| B|-------17--15-15--15-17--------------------15----17--15-17----------------| G|------------------------16-14-16-14--14-16----16--------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------| 1ST VERSE: (0:56 - 1:19) ------------------------- This part seems nearly correct to me.

Use Heavy Delay when playing the Chorus part 1ST WAY. All notes tremolo picked e|--------------------------| B|--7---8-7--5--3-----5-----| G|--------------------------| X4 D|--------------------------| A|--------------------------| E|--------------------------| 2d way.. Also using tremolo picking (I prefer this way, it matches the melody much more) e|----------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--7---5---3---5---7--5--3-----5--------7---5---3---5---7--8--7-----5--| G|----------------------------------------------------------------------| X2 D|----------------------------------------------------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------------------------| (1:40 - 2:03) Repeat Intro..
