Artist: Linkin Park Song: Somewhere I Belong Album: Meteora Tabber: Dustin (Crazylefty4life@hotmail.com) Tuning: (Low to High) Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb ALright I've watched the music video for this song over and over and tabbed the song from there. Then I watched Linkin Park play this song live on three different occasions on T.V. So I believe this tab should be 100% correct! Brad Delson and Mike Shinoda both play guitar for this song. Brad's part is Gtr 1 and Mike's is Gtr 2. Gtr 3 is not necessary because it's only a volum swell, but they used it for the song on the album so I've tabbed that as well. Brad's part in the very beginning was actually going to be played on a keyboard until he made up this sweet effect instead. Many people believe that this is just a DJ effect, but it's not. This effect is looped into the song in various parts via Mr. Hahn. [*all natural harmonics] - (lay finger over fretbar w/o pushing down) d = downstroke u = upstroke x = palm mute Intro Gtr 1 (Brad's effect on this is a clean tone with a backward loop effect.)
