    The Devil Wears Prada

Song: Outnumbered
Artist: The Devil Wears Prada
Album: Zombies EP

Tuning: Drop B (B F# B E G# C#)

I have included both lead and rhythm because they compliment each other
So well in this song. Lead is the first half of the tab. Rhythm is the
Second half. I hope it’s easy to follow, I added notes as necessary.
The outro is the only thing that confuses me so please read it carefully

LEAD: CHRIS’ PART

Repeat these 2 bars 4 times, 2nd time end in a pinch harmonic

rhythm’s chords if you prefer (chords are 0 8 4 and 0 8 11 barre

IMPORTANT!!!

The tremolo picking part sounds right/better when played ALONG with rhythm
guitar (which plays 5’s then 7’s), although if you want it to sound closer to the 
play 5’s then 4’s instead of 8’s then 4’s

If you watch live videos you can clearly see Jeremy (rhythm) playing the previous bar 
Chris (lead) plays this chord multiple times..you can
kindaaaa hear this being played along with the 5x7 octaves, but the outro
by itself is already just an audio mess

Strum lightly
