Artist: Defenestration
Song: Under Locks
Album: One Inch God
Tuning: Standard
Tabbed By: Wilkie

I’m not sure what tuning they use. Its probably lower than standard,
I would find it out but my guitar won’t support lower tunings
and I can’t be bothered to put heavier strings on.
This is an easy song, and it is to put it bluntly, F*!$ing amazing.

~ = Sustain note
% = Repeat previous riff
/ = Slide
()= notes in parethasis; do not pick.

The order is easy to figure out, ring outs where appropriate and Jimmy’s home.
Stunning song from a stunning band. I leave you to work out the corrections.
Don’t bitch.

Lyrics:

I Feel I'm underlocks, and no-one made a key
So in here I will rot, it makes more sense to me
And now I’m given hope, a hope of being free
Untie the shreds of rope, that hold me to my knees 

The fear, The near, the same inside
The near, The fear, this time no hide
I make, Then brake, The fear inside
I'll fake mistake, this time no hide 

The fear, The near, the same inside
The near, The fear, this time no hide
I make, Then brake, The fear inside
I'll fake mistake, this time no hide 

I Feel I'm underlocks, and no-one made a key
So in here I will rot, it makes more sense to me
And now I’m given hope, a hope of being free
Untie the shreds of rope, that hold me to my knees 

The fear, The near, the same inside
The near, The fear, this time no hide
I make, Then brake, The fear inside
I'll fake mistake, this time no hide 

The fear, The near, the same inside
The near, The fear, this time no hide
I make, Then brake, The fear inside
I'll fake mistake, this time no hide 

The Fear
The Near
It's Here
Is Here
The Fear
It's Near

The fear feels the same (INSIDE)
It's near there's no place (TO HIDE)
It's here it feels, the same (INSIDE)
The near too near to stay (ALIVE) 

The fear, The near, the same inside
The near, The fear, this time no hide
I make, Then brake, The fear inside
I'll fake mistake, this time no hide
