Standard Tuning Song written by Garry Schyman for Bioshock 2 Song transcribed and tabbed by Austin (A Dead Fly) Simple, but fun beautiful song to play, a little fast for beginners. Harps, pianos, strings, and synthesizers transcribed for guitar. I labeled one of the tracks cello, but it is possible that it could be a violin, a viola, or a combination of the three. All lead and rythym notes are quarter notes except where noted. Intro Synthesizer (plays solo for two bars) el12v~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~l Bl-----------------------l Gl-----------------------l Dl-----------------------l Al-----------------------l El-----------------------l Part 1 (Sections A, B, C, D) Section A Lead el12-------------------l Play 8 Times Bl-------------13------l Gl-----14------------14l Dl---------------------l Al---------------------l El---------------------l Rythym el12-------------------l Enters on the very last bar/time of the lead in section A Bl-------------10------l Gl-----12------------12l Dl---------------------l Al---------------------l El---------------------l Section B Lead el12------------------l Play 8 Times Bl-------------12-----l Gl-----12-----------12l Dl--------------------l Al--------------------l El--------------------l Rythym el(12)----------------l Play 7 Times el(12)--------------l Play this the last bar Bl-------------10-----l Bl-----------8------l of section B Gl-----12-----------12l Gl------10--------10l Dl--------------------l Dl------------------l Al--------------------l Al------------------l El--------------------l El------------------l Cello el12v~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~l Plays quietly all the way through Bl--------------------l section B's 8 bars, only one note Gl--------------------l Dl--------------------l Al--------------------l El--------------------l Section C Lead el12------------l--------------l-------------l-------------l Play two times Bl--------------l12------------l13-----------l12-----------l All lead notes switch to Gl--------14----l--------14----l---------14--l-------14----l half notes in Dl--------------l--------------l-------------l-------------l section C until the section's end Al--------------l--------------l-------------l-------------l El--------------l--------------l-------------l-------------l Rythym el(12)----------------l Play 7 Times el----------------l Play this the last Bl-------------8------l Bl12-------12-----l bar of section C Gl-----10-----------10l Gl-----12------12-l Dl--------------------l Dl----------------l Al--------------------l Al----------------l El--------------------l El----------------l Cello el12v~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~l Plays quietly all the way through Bl--------------------l section c's 8 bars, only one note Gl--------------------l Dl--------------------l Al--------------------l El--------------------l Section D Lead el10------------l---------------l Play 4 times Bl--------10----l12------10-----l Gl----12------12l----12-------12l Dl--------------l---------------l Al--------------l---------------l El--------------l---------------l Rythym el-------------------l Play 8 Times Bl12----------12-----l Gl-----12----------12l Dl-------------------l Al-------------------l El-------------------l Cello el10v~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~l Plays quietly all the way through Bl--------------------l section c's 8 bars, only one note Gl--------------------l Dl--------------------l Al--------------------l El--------------------l Part 2 (Sections E, F, G, H) Part 2 is the same length as Part 1 and the lead and rythym parts go in the exact same order, so refer above for those parts.
