Artist: Billy Talent Title: Try Honesty (Video/CD Version) Key: Drop D Tabber: Andrew Mazurak Alright I figured I'd tab out the actual version of the song (from the Video/CD). Theres alot of different parts then from the first version, but theres some of it thats the same. I'm still working on it but it all pretty much sounds correct, theres a couple guitar parts that during the chorus that are in the background but there not as noticable as the heavy parts so I just left them as it is. Its not a extremely hard song, but it does have a bunch of different parts which is what makes it a really good song to learn, great picking and chording...

Great song and a great cd, everyone should be picking it up when it gets released September 19th. Good ol' Canadian band. Theres a couple parts missing like the ending and at the last "I'm insane, it's your fault" where it gets higher and higher, but i'm too tired to figure out the rest. If you have any questions or comments or anything, e-mail me at mazurak@hotmail.com or ask me on MSN which is what everybody seems to be doing hah. Thanks to the following: Gary H. for the lyrics!
