I've seen the live clip at lowlands over and over, just for the intro and this is the way i tabbed it out and play it now :







t |o--ooo----------|




T |------oo-oo-----|




F |o----------ooo--|




B |o---o---o---o---|

This is what the intro is on the sheet music... and it's correct.

i know that it's like that josephthl but my version is for the peepz who don't have 2 floor toms (like me), but tnx a lot !
pearldrumguypearldrumguy Unknown Date
yo josephthl can u send me the sheet music heylookisay@hotmail.com or if someone else has it please email it to me.thatnxs. yo my correction is your tom begining is wrong
ILIKE2DRUMSILIKE2DRUMS Unknown Date
This tab would be perfect there's just a couple of parts off \ The intro to the toms (after studying the vid and song) goes like


/===Repeat 6x==\


t |o--oo-----------|o-o-o-o-o-o-o---|


T |-----oo-g---o---|----------------|


S |----------------|--------------F-|


F |---------ooo----|o-o-o-o-o-o-o---|


F2|o-----------o---|----------------|


B |o---o---o---o---|o---o---o---o---|


1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a 1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a





And on the Chorus Slow Tempo (Trust in my self righteous suicide)the ride is played on 8th notes not 16ths (or maybe it's half-time?)

you say at the beginning it is "a rolling suicide." it is "WE'RE rolling suicide."

The verse is like this:



Verse

HH|xx-------xxxxxxxxxxxx|

SD|oo-------------------|

BD|oo-------o-o-o-o-o-oo|



You repeat the hi-hat/bass drum part that is after the SD/BD/HH part.







Also the intro is like this:



HT|o--oo---oo-----|o--oo---oo-----|

LT|o----ooo--oo---|o----ooo--oo---|x7

FT|------------o-o|------------o-o|

BD|o--o--o--o--o--|o--o--o--o--o--|



HT|o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o|

LT|o-o-o-o-o-o-o--|

SD|--------------o|

BD|o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o|
