----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Checkmate- Bring The Heat ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Ben Campbell Email: Alivebutnotintact@gmail.com Band: Bring The Heat Song: Checkmate www.myspace.com/bringtheheat570 Tuning: Drop A (or Drop B. your choice) When I started to figure the song out my guitar was in drop A. So I tabbed it in drop A. However Im pretty sure its just in drop B though. I like using drop A because in the first breakdown I like chugging the bottom a and e open. If you use drop B just play everything 2 frets lower. Also, I tabbed it like I play it with one guitar. I add a few random extra things to make one guitar a little more heavy. Listen to figure out weather to palm mute hard or light. and when to let it ring Intro |------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------|x2 |--22222--2--222-222-2--2------------------------------------------------| |--22222--2--222-222-2--2--6b-5b-4b-3b-----------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------9-7-9-10-9-7----| |--2-----------------------------2-----------------------7-5-7-8--7-5----| |--2-----------------------------2---------------------------------------| |-----------------///////////xxx-------------------------------------------| |-----------------///////////xxx-------------------------------------------| |-----------------///////////xxx-------------------------------------------| |-----------------///////////xxx---------------------------9-7-9-10-9-7b---| |--2--------------///////////xxx---2-----------------------7-5-7-8--7-5b---| |--2--------------///////////xxx---2---------------------------------------| So you think your tough now.
