Song: "Not Falling"
Artist: MuDvAyNe
Instrument: Bass
Album: The End Of All Things To Come

 (Being my first tab ever, I decided to fix up some things that I missed)

If you want to actually hear my tabs, download Guitar Pro 4, (one of those tabbing
programs) and you can download all of my Mudvayne tabs on www.mysongbook.com!!!

Tabbed by Greg G.    email me at pelvic_thrust2001@hotmail.com
                     if you need any other Mudvayne, cuz I know 
                     a ton, if you like this tab.

    Hi everyone! I just saw Mudvayne live (11/27/02) and I got front row right in front of Ryknow, it was awesome. The first time I tabbed this i did it by ear, but I
watched Ryan so close when i was there and this is 100% right. Well maybe its not
100%, but its about 98.
    This is probably the easiest Mudvayne song to tab cuz there's no plucking or
slapping, some parts he plays pretty hard so its kind of a slap.
    There are so many timing changes in the verse so i wont doanything fancy.
    Anyway, heres the tab:

That's pretty much it, if you've heard the song you'll know the order
and everything. Please email me if you have any questions or comments,
or if you need any other Mudvayne.

Thanks for the long read

iskatestonediskatestonedUnknown Date
u have a bunch a stuff that isnt needed dude
iskatestonediskatestonedUnknown Date
you may have went to the concert. but it is not 100%. its more like 2%. you are no where close to getting the song right
mudbmxermudbmxerUnknown Date
Lighten up ISkateStoned, this isn't a bad tab. Watch him in the recording studio--this is pretty close. Part of the chorus and verse 1 and the "come play kill" part are slightly off, but nothing that would make it 2% correct.
slapinthebassslapinthebassUnknown Date
dude this tab is alot better then 2% i give a 98% and the best not falling tab yet
this tab is GREAT, im surprised someone actually sat down and did this ... u shud be proud greg ... theres only one thing i can say ... it wud be a lot clearer for some bassists if u actually put down a legend before the actual tab, and indicated the slapping and popping bits in this tab... most of us can tell by listening to it, but, u never know who would need it ... apart from that, well done ...

Good TAB, but the lyrics are all wrong!





Here they are:





Always


Noted on my time


A little left I'm centered now


Reflect


As I realize


That all I


Need is to find


The little bit about to sit like the sun like a star in the sky


It just makes


Enough


Cast the stars in me





I


I stand


Not crawling


Not falling down


I


I'll beat


The demons


That drag me down


I


I stand


(For nothing)


Not crawling


(Descending)


Not falling down


(Your nothing in the end)


I


I'll bleed


(For no one)


The demons


(But myself)


That pull me down


(For me and no one else)





Goodbye


Sunshine


I put it out again


Sun


I'm over


The sanelities


Convicting


I don’t need you


Or anyone by me


I'll just be


Living my own life


I feel like growing cynical


Infecting


I feel alive and sharper


Turn on the lime


Planted on myself to sit like the seed in the comforts of every


Just makes


Enough


What you think isn't me





[Chorus]





Come play kill


(Refuse my to fall, today refuse my shadow)


Stone cold will


(Refuse to need this, refuse to follow)


Bitter pills


(Refuse to be this, refuse to swallow, I feel godless)


Come play


Come play god


Test me


Test me


Test me


Test me


Test me





I


I stand


(For nothing)


Not crawling


(Descending)


Not falling down


(Your nothing in the end)


I


I'll bleed


(For no one)


The demons


(But myself)

slapinthebassslapinthebassUnknown Date
yeah i just wanted to say that in the beginning ryknow strms with hes fingers.you just might want to but that down so people know.also he strms in second verus of the chours if that makes sence
shavoISMYgodshavoISMYgodUnknown Date
for all you people talking about how this tab isnt perfect... its a lot better than the rest. and making a big deal about little tiny things is kinda retarded seeing as how ryan doesnt exactly play the "album version" of the song every freakin night. it gets boring sometimes playing the same songs over and over so good bassists know how to throw crap in there to make the song sound better and to make it a lil more enjoyable to play. you can watch videos of them playing live too and see that this tab is great. overall yeah id say this tab is pretty damn great.
NuMetal4LifeNuMetal4LifeUnknown Date
sheer fricking brilliance. besides some inane stuff that realy doesnt even matter, this tab is PERFECT.
KoRnRoX91KoRnRoX91Unknown Date
I disagree with EVERYONE who thinks is a bad tab.Dude excellent job tabbing.
taucannonmantaucannonmanUnknown Date
great tab! but there are two minor things:


1: in betwean the phrases of the main rif he hits all of his strings kind of like this


|-------x------------x--


|-------x------------x--


|-------x------------x--


|-0h3-0-x--0h3-0h3-0-x-- and so on





2: at the end of the 1st and 3rd times he plays the main rif he does this "un-hearable" slide up the fretboard


|-----------


|-----------


|-1-11\0-00-


|----------- other than that it was perfect, u see, i based this when i saw them at the late show. keep tabbin


peace

I must say you are one CRAZY TABBER!!! I've been checking out your other MuDvAyNe tabs and man they are incredible.....awesome job....keep up the good work!!

This tab isn't very good. Alot of it's wrong.


http://www.mxtabs.net/tab_versions.php?path=Bass,m,2335,Mudvayne,Not+Fallingg,138371


This is the best one. It's basically 100%
DecayingAriesDecayingAriesUnknown Date
Wait that other guy just copied the first tab. The first tab is the best! I don't know why anyone else bothered tabing this
dogtownbassestdogtownbassestUnknown Date
good tab dude. i think all of you who keep complaining about how bad it is. this and the other one are both great....personally i would use both and use which part is easer and sound correct w/ tone. not all of us are as tallented as ryan. both of tabers should be proud, they are both good.
dogtownbassestdogtownbassestUnknown Date
what i meant to say is just stop complaing about little things..they can do whatever they want to do w/ it and make it there own. like some great jazz players like mingus.
