"Combat Chuck" by Five Iron Frenzy Album: Upbeats and beatdowns Tabbed by: Corey Lanier (on3.40.se7en@gmail.com) This is most definitely my favorite FIF song. Enjoy! Tuning (EADG: Standard) Verse pt.1 G|--------------- D|--------------- A|-------0-1-0-1- E|-3-3-3--------- Verse pt.2 G|-------------------- D|-------------------- A|-----3333--1111----- E|-3333----------1111- Verse pt.1 G|--------------- D|--------------- A|-------0-1-0-1- E|-3-3-3--------- Verse pt.2 G|-------------------- D|-------------------- A|-----3333--1111----- E|-3333----------1111- Bridge G|--------------------------------- D|-------------------2-3-5-3-2---2- A|---2-3-5-3-2---2-3-----------3--- E|-3-----------3------------------- I've also seen the bridge played like this. My friend (and the bassist for my band), Chris Burgess, plays a version that plays the octaves of the notes. Here's how he does it (I'm not a fan of open strings, so I avoid this at possible, or I'd play it simple!), if you want to try this out. G|-----------------------0--------- D|-------0-----------2-3---3-2---2- A|---2-3---3-2---2-3-----------3--- E|-3-----------3------------------- It looks tougher in the tab. However, you don't have to slide your fingers at all. So basically, you're playing a run in stationary position which is pretty darn skippy! Chorus G|--------------- D|--------------- A|-------0-1-0-1- E|-3-3-3--------- Outro G|-------------------- D|-------------------- A|-----3333--1111----- E|-3333----------1111- Then finally… G|------- D|------- A|-----3- E|-0-3--- And let the A|-3- ring at the end. Sorry I didn't give you a repeat value on each line, but...I think you can swing that. Anyways, that's all, peace and love people!
