Rites of Spring-The Bravery
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello! I hope you enjoy what it took me quite a while to figure out. But my hard work is 
to your benefit. So I hope you enjoy this and it helps you out alot. And thats all I 
to say.

This first part was originally made for keyboard,
 but I like it more on Guitar so here it is.

e\--------------------------------9-12-----------------|
b\-----------12---13---12---14---------12--10---10-----|
g\-11-14-11----11---11---11----9--9--9---9---11--------|   x5
d\-----------------------------------------------------|
a\-----------------------------------------------------|
e\-----------------------------------------------------|


After one time of that the other guitar comes in with this.

e\----------------------------9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9-----|
b\-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10--10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10------|
g\-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-------------------------------|
d\-------------------------------------------------------|   Continued on next line......
a\-------------------------------------------------------|
e\-------------------------------------------------------|

e\-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9------------------------|
b\-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-------|
g\-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-------|    x8
d\----------------------------------------|
a\----------------------------------------|
e\----------------------------------------|

The the pre-chorus comes next.

e\-----------------15----15----15----15----------------|
b\----15----15------------------------------15----15---|
g\-12----12----12----12-----12----12----12----12-------|
d\-----------------------------------------------------|  Continued on next line.....
a\-----------------------------------------------------|
e\-----------------------------------------------------|

e\-----------------14----14----14----14---------------|
b\----14----14----------------------------14----14----|
g\-11----11----11----11----11----11----11----11-------|
d\----------------------------------------------------|
a\----------------------------------------------------|
e\----------------------------------------------------|

Then the chorus comes next.

e\--------------------------------9-12-----------------|
b\-----------12---13---12---14---------12--10---10-----|
g\-11-14-11----11---11---11----9--9--9---9---11--------|   x4
d\-----------------------------------------------------|
a\-----------------------------------------------------|
e\-----------------------------------------------------|

and during that the other guitar plays.

e\----------------------------9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9-----|
b\-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10--10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10------|
g\-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-------------------------------|
d\-------------------------------------------------------|   Continued on next line......
a\-------------------------------------------------------|
e\-------------------------------------------------------|

e\-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9------------------------|
b\-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-------|
g\-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-------|    x4
d\----------------------------------------|
a\----------------------------------------|
e\----------------------------------------|

Then it repeats like that until the solo, which comes after the 2nd chorus.
And it goes like this.
Keep in mind he is doing really fast strokes.

e\----------------------------------------------------|
b\---------------------------12-----------------------|
g\-14--13--11-13-11------14-----13-14-11-12-11--------|   Continued on next line.....
d\-------------------14--------------------------14---|
a\----------------------------------------------------|
e\----------------------------------------------------|

e\-----------------------------------------------------|
b\----14----14----17----17-----14----14----17----17----|
g\-14----14----14----14-----14----14----14----14-------|   Continued on next line.....
d\-----------------------------------------------------|
a\-----------------------------------------------------|
e\-----------------------------------------------------|

e\-----------------------12-------------------|
b\----12----12----14----------14----12--------|
g\-13----13----13----13----13----13-----------|      Continued on next line.....
d\--------------------------------------------|
a\--------------------------------------------|
e\--------------------------------------------|

e\---------------------9-9-9-9-|
b\-----------------------------|
g\-11b-9-----------------------|
d\-------11---11---9-----------|
a\-----------------------------|
e\-----------------------------|

And Thats the solo.

Now comes the bridge.
Its originally for keyboard but, as you know I think everything
sounds better on guitar.

e\-----------------------------------------|
b\-----------------------------------------|
g\-----------------------------------------|    x1
d\-----------------------------------------|
a\-0-2---------0--0-2--------------2-------|
e\-----2-2-0-2--------0-0-2-0-2-0----------|

And that continues through the chorus to finish up the song.
So there you are thats all, and have a good time playing Rites of Spring.
