artist: trust company
title: downfall
album: the lonely position of neutral
transcribed by: brad manz

i am 99% positive about this tab. the only thing i'm not absolutely sure of
is the harmonic(s) played after "can i break away?"..

the correct tuning for this song is Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb. dropped D tuning,
then down another half step. i've seen them play it live, this is how it's
done.

^-bend
*-harmonic

an "m" after a note means quickly mute it after you play it. the notes in
parenthesis are played as a result of a chord transition while strumming.

cymbal crash then..
guitar 1 plays this 4x
guitar 2 plays this 2x then begins playing note below

fear in me so deep
it gets the best of me
in the fear i fall
here it comes face to face with me
here i stand
hold back so no one can see
i feel these wounds
step down.. step down.. step.. DOWN!
