------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADHESIVE - Stone Temple Pilots ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: KnuckleChildren E-mail: danreid1977@optusnet.com.au Tuning: Standard (EADGBe) A great song, one of STP's finest, for mine. It's a beautiful song with some really nice sounding trademark DeLeo chords. It's also hard to find any tabs for. There are four rhythm parts to the song, as below: verse, pre chorus, chorus and breakdown. Listen to the song to find out exactly where each part fits and how often to play each part; it's a pretty straightforward structure. I'm confident that this is mostly right, it sounds good to my ear, at least. Here goes: Intro/Verse (repeat): There are slight variations of this riff, but the same chords and progression persist throughout the verses/solo. e|--0----0---0---0--0--0--0--0-0---0----0---0--0--0--0--0--0-0---0----0---0---0--0--| B|--5----5---5---7--7--9--9--9-9---7----7---7--9--9--9--9--9-9---4----4---4---4--4--| G|--6----6---6---6--6--9--9--9-9---6----6---6--9--9--9--9--9-9---4----4---4---4--4--| D|--7----7---7---7--7--7--7--7-7---7----7---7--7--7--7--7--7-7---2----2---2---2--2--| A|--0----0---0---0--0--0--0--0-0---0----0---0--0--0--0--0--0-0---4----4---4---4--4--| E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| e|--2-2-2-2---2----2---2---2--2--2-2-2-2---| B|--4-4-4-4---4----4---4---4--4--4-4-4-4---| G|--4-4-4-4---4----4---4---4--4--4-4-4-4---| D|--2-2-2-2---2----2---2---2--2--2-2-2-2---| A|--4-4-4-4---4----4---4---4--4--4-4-4-4---| E|-----------------------------------------| Pre-chorus: (play once the first time, twice the second and third times) e|--2---2---2-2-2---2---2---2---2---------------------0---0---0---0---0---0--| B|--5---4---4-5-4---5---4---5---4---5---4---4--5--4---5---4---5---4---5---4--| G|--2---2---2-2-2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2--2--2---4---4---4---4---4---4--| D|--4---4---4-4-4---4---4---4---4---2---2---2--2--2---4---4---4---4---4---4--| A|--4---4---4-4-4---4---4---4---4---0---0---0--0--0---2---2---2---2---2---2--| E|--2---2---2-2-2---2---2---2---2--------------------------------------------| Chorus (repeat twice): e|--0---0---0--0--0---0---0---0---0---0--0---0---0---0--0--0---0---0---0---0--| B|--0---0---0--0--0---0---0---0---0---0--0---0---3---3--0--3---0---3---0---3--| G|--2---1---1--2--1---2---1---2---1---2--1---4---2---2--4--2---4---2---4---2--| D|--2---2---2--2--2---2---2---2---2---2--2---2---2---2--2--2---2---2---2---2--| A|--2---2---2--2--2---2---2---2---2---2--2---3---3---3--3--3---3---3---3---3--| E|--0---0---0--0--0---0---0---0---0---0--0------------------------------------| e|--0---0---| B|--0---3---| G|--4---2---| D|--2---2---| A|--3---3---| E|----------| Breakdown: e|------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--3--3--3-3--7---7--7-7-7-7---6--6--6-6--6---6--6-6-6-6---3-------| G|--2--2--2-2--7---7--7-7-7-7---7--7--7-7--7---7--7-7-7-7---2-------| D|--0--0--0-0--7---7--7-7-7-7---7--7--7-7--7---7--7-7-7-7---0-------| A|--2--2--2-2--x---x--x-x-x-x---x--x--x-x--x---x--x-x-x-x---0-------| E|-------------7---7--7-7-7-7---6--6--6-6--6---6--6-6-6-6-----------| That's it! I've tried to tab the timing as best as possible, but as always, listen to the song to nail it.
