------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “In Memory” – Black Lungs Wade Macneil and Sammi Bogdanski www.myspace.com/dirtyblacklungs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Stephen Nolan Email: ScubaSteve4285@gmail.com *Hey you smelly pigs. This is one of two songs currently (as of 11/25/07) posted on the Lungs myspace. This is Wade from Alexisonfire being large and in charge on vocals and The song is really raw and the only addition that I can hear is some keys and vocal It kind of has that old doo-wop / misfits feel with the melody. *The song, as far as I can tell, basically consists of a few different repetitive This being the case, I’ll give the ‘chord’ fingerings upfront and then just do my best to where the changes are in relation to my interpretation of the lyrics. To my ears it like he sticks mostly to 5ths (power chords), but I’ll also put the full chords, or in this key you can just add some open strings to the power chords and still be alright. This helps to give some more meat if you’re going to play it by yourself. *Email any comments/suggestions/pictures of your mom to ScubaSteve4285@gmail.com.

You look that up if you’re that hardcore. All of the ‘power chords’ above can be altered by adding on an extra bass note or the open B and e strings ring for variation. Example for the B5: e|------0------------| B|------0------------| G|-4----4------------| D|-4-or-4------------| A|-2----2------------| E|-2-----------------| Sorry if this bores anyone, but I’m not 100% sure he only plays the straight power so you can use whatever variation suits you.

If all of the crap above the actual chords was confusing just stick to power chords. had to include it just in case it might help someone out even a little bit. Now go plug your electric and thrown on some grit and make your grandmother’s boobs fall off.
