RUNNER UPS BY KURT VILE OFF OF "SMOKE RING FOR MY HALO" 2011 MATADOR RECORDS **TUNING** low to high F#-B-B-F#-A#-D# tune the high E down half a step to D#. tune the B down half a step to A#. tune the G down half a step to F#. tune the D down one and a half steps to B. tune the A up a whole step to B. tune the E up a whole step to F#. not sure if this tuning is correct. it sounds pretty sweet though either way as an open tuning this song is incredible, here is my attempt at tabbing what i figured out the other day. intro E-----------0------------------0----------------0----------0--------| B-3----------------3--------------------3---------------------------| G-------0---------------0----------0----------------0-----------0---| D-0-----------0----------------0------------0--------------0--------| A-------------------------------------------------------------------| E-------------------------------------------------------------------| --------0--------0---------------0----| --3------------------------3----------| -----------0---------0-------------0--| ----0------------0-----------0--------| --------------------------------------| --------------------------------------| verse E-----------0----------------------------3------------------| B-3/5--------------3----------3/5-------------5-------------| G-------0---------------0-----------0--------------0--------| D-0-----------0---------------0------------0----------------| A-----------------------------------------------------------| E-----------------------------------------------------------| E-----------0----------------------------0------------------| B-0----------------0----------3---------------0-------------| G-------4---------------4-----------2--------------2--------| D-4-----------4---------------2------------2----------------| A-----------------------------------------------------------| E-----------------------------------------------------------| he plays this sort of variation of the riff sometimes E-----------0----------------------------3------------------| B-0h3-------------3----------3/5-------------5--------------| G-------0---------------0-----------0--------------0--------| D-0-----------0--------------0------------0-----------------| A-----------------------------------------------------------| E-----------------------------------------------------------| E-----------0h5-------------5\3-----3p0---------------------| B-0----------------0--------0------------0--3p0-------------| G-------4---------------4--(4)------------------------------| D-4-------------------------4\2---2-------------------------| A-----------------------------------------------------------| E-----------------------------------------------------------| the song ends with this E-----------0-----------------| B-3h5-------------5-----------| G-------0-------------0-------| D-0-----------0---------------| A-----------------------------| E-----------------------------| the second guitar is in standard tuning i believe and has a CAPO on the 6th fret this part is most likely very wrong but it's just an idea of how it goes. he probably does a lot more and hammers on/pulls off a lot on the A or D on the 2nd fret to open.
