NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) - Pipe Dream (by Lucasarts) Tab version 1.3 Tuning: standard Tempo: approximately 148 bpm Guitar 1 = higher pitched melody Guitar 2 = "bass" h = hammer on p = pull off Double lines of '#'s indicate which two guitar parts go together, to avoid confusion. i may have been able to slow this down to ensure accuracy in this tab, but i sure as hell can't play it up to speed. So rest assured i'm not being smug when i say -- good luck! As an alternative_to the 15th fret on the 2nd string, you could try using the 10th fret the 1st string. \ Guitar 1 \ e-------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-11-------13-------15-------11-------10-------15-------10-------15-------| G----12-------12-------12-------12-------11-------11-------11-------11----| D-------12-------12-------12-------12-------12-------12-------12-------12-| A-------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 NOTE: It isn't necessary to learn the beginning this way because When you reach the end the loop and have to begin this melody again, it's more feasible to begin higher up on the neck. The alternate tab for the beginning of this melody is at the bottom of this tab.

But there's one problem. i started out the bass on the 5th fret, and now you're on the 14th fret (or the 19th fret on the 4th string, if you substituted note for the last one in Guitar 1's part). Instead of sliding all the way back down to the 5th fret to begin the bass part again, you might try it this way instead: Guitar 2 e-------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-------------------------------------------------------------------------| G-------------------------------------------------------------------------| D---------------12---------------------10------5~------7~-----------------| A-10-12-13-10-9----9-12-8-10-12-8-10-7----10-6-----6-8--------------------| E-------------------------------------------------------------------------| etc. Sound setup info: Effects processor: DOD GS30 (circa '99) "Grunge" type distortion Gain: 99 (1 to 99) High EQ: 8 (scale of -12 to 12) Mid EQ: 4 High EQ: 8 Volume: 80 (scale of 0 - 99) Delay type "PP" Delay time: 10 (scale of 10 - 99) Regen/Fback: 60 (scale of 0 - 99) Level: 50 (scale of 0 - 99) Amp: Peavey Studio Pro 112 Clean channel; all EQ knobs set to midpoint "Modern/Vintage" toggled to Vintage Volume knob at about 0.9 Amp's reverb set at 2/10 Tone Dynamics set at midpoint i can't find an NSF rip of this song anywhere, so i recorded a WAV from an NES emulator.
