BAND: LOST PROPHETS SONG: THE FAKE SOUND OF PROGRESS TABBER: LyCrAkE - o_thurtle@hotmail.com TUNING: SEE TAB Hey i decided to tab this song as there are no good tabs 4 it here, i spent ages on it and it is perfect virtually, i did Shinobi vs Dragon Ninja too but that is a bit wrong. 2 guitarists are needed and i suggest this effects setup. LEAD GUITAR: Wah (maybe autowah?) Flange, Clean Distortion RHYTHM GUITAR: cLEAN dISTORTION, Overdrives of somekind Ok, i only detuned the bottom 3 strings, and tuning all the way down two tones is not needed even thought lost prophets tune the whole guitar down 2 tones i couldnt b bothered and it sounds the same either way. Tune both guitars to :- e - Thinnest BG A#F C - Thickest A weird tuning i know but i couldnt b bothered to retab it for a totally stepped down guitar. Ok here it goes, a well done song this.. }}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ INTRO: ##RIFF1### TIME: 0:03 GUITAR PLAYING IT: Lead INFO: Have the autowah or flange on vocals: "Somebody told me that I always have to bow if that was true I would have fallen apart by now The more u think, the less u act their ways so can u hear this, the fake sound of progress" e |-------0-------0-------0--------0--------- B |-----3-------3-------3--------3----------- G |------------------------------------------ A#|------------------------------------------ F |------------------------------------------ C |--4-------6-------0-------2--------------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ CHORUS: ##RIFF2### TIME: 0:13 GUITAR PLAYING IT: Rhythm INFO: Have the autowah or flange on vocals: NONE! e |----------------|-------------------------- B |----------------|-------------------------- G |----------------|-------------------------- A#|---6--8--2--4---|-on last time play--6----- F |---6--8--2--4---|-and let ring-------6----- C |---4--6--0--2---|--------------------4----- ##RIFF3### TIME: 0:13 GUITAR PLAYING IT: Lead INFO: Have the autowah or flange on, comes in 2nd time the chorus riff is payed, u can hear it on the offbeat. vocals: NONE! e |----------------|-------------------------- B |----------------|-------------------------- G |----------------|-------------------------- A#|---6--8--2--4---|-on last time play--6----- F |---6--8--2--4---|-and let ring-------6----- C |---4--6--0--2---|--------------------4----- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ BASS BRIDGE TO VERSE: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ VERSE (1st half): ##RIFF4### TIME: 1:00 GUITAR PLAYING IT: Lead INFO: Have the autowah or flange on, u can move up the the 7 fret i think, quite hard to make out, but this sing note is just played all the way through the 1st half of the verse vocals: "Never reason with a fool, but is that unkind, looks like I lost my mind once again I know it all sounds so contrived, but its got to me u know I've got to be more than this" e |------------------------------------------ B |---5------------reapeated play------------ G |------------------------------------------ A#|------------------------------------------ F |------------------------------------------ C |------------------------------------------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ VERSE (2nd half): ##RIFF5### TIME: 1:20 GUITAR PLAYING IT: Lead INFO: Pretty much clean, no effects, listen for rhythm and timings vocals: "don't frown, don't scorn, cus I walk a different street to u u look so worn, i bet that life is has got you blown but it will never get to mee" e |-------7----------------7----------------- B |-----5---5------------5---5--------------- G |--7-----------------7--------------------- A#|------------------------------------------ F |--play 3 times------forth time------------ C |---------------------rhythm change-------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ CHORUS: ##RIFF 2## TIME: 1:38 GUITAR PLAYING IT: Both Info: Theres an upbeat where just this is played, then goes into normal chorus, distortion e |------------------------------------------ B |------------------------------------------ G |------------------------------------------ A#|---6-6-6-6-------------------------------- F |---6-6-6-6------this---------------------- C |---4-4-4-4-----upbeat then normal chorus-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ BRIDGE TO VERSE: ##RIFF6### TIME: 2:00 GUITAR PLAYING IT: Lead INFO: Distortion, listen 4 rhythm vocals: None e |-------7------------------10--8----------- B |-----5---5---x3---------5----------------- G |--7-------------------7------------------- A#|------------------------------------------ F |---play this------------------------------ C |---3 times then--------this on 4th time--- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ BASS BRIDGE: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ VERSE (1ST HALF): Time: 2:27 Vocals: "and I feel the way u hold, hold me back from this chances that I've missed, now their gone apathy is all I sense, the feelings too intense sitting on a fence and cant decide" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ VERSE (2ND HALF): Time: 2:46 "don't frown, don't scorn, cus I walk a different street to u u look so worn, i bet that life is has got you blown no body will ever get to me" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ CHORUS Time: 3:06 BRIDGE TO INTERLUDE Info: The bridge for the lead guitar is the same as the bridge to verse, but then it switches to a clean sound at 3:47 and plays RIFF 5.

Pretty easy, but i h8 the tuning down but there we go thats how its done. The pitch of the notes is perfect, so dont argue. Dunno about the effects but this is wot i think it is. Thanks very much, if you have ne sensible alterations post them, but its like 99% right, email me if you have anything 2 say! o_thurtle@hotmail.com
