IN LIMBO
for guitar - 4/4, 2/4 time signature


I have tabbed out each riff and named them INTRO RIFF, VERSE RIFF and CHORUS
RIFF, to add a bit of structure (not that it's distinguishable). At
the end I have put a structure layout.

There is only the one guitar throughout. Ed plays the little intro riff on keyboard but it sounds okay on 
guitar, but when everyone comes in, Jonny plays the main repeated riff. Jonny plays little delayed riffs 
here
and there too.

KEY:
H - hammer on
P - pull off
x - muted scratch


INTRO RIFF - 4/4, 2/4:

Here is the little riff before it kicks in. It might
have a short delay on, that's why it was so *** hard
to tab..!

    1   +   2   +   3   +   4   +   1   +   2   +
e -------------------------------------------------
B --1-3-3-3-----1-3-3---3---3-3-3-3-5-3-1-3---3-3--
G ---H-----------H-------------------P---H---------
D -------------------------------------------------
A -------------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------------

    1   +   2   +   3   +   4   +   1   +   2   +
e ---------------------------------------------------
B --1-3-3-3-3-3-1-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-1-3-3-3---3-1-3--
G ---H-----------H-------------------H-----------H---
D ---------------------------------------------------
A ---------------------------------------------------
E ---------------------------------------------------

Then it all kicks in but this keyboard/guitar still continues
quietly throughout the verses, varying a little.


VERSE RIFF - 4/4, 2/4:

This is the main riff, playing triplets:

    1        2        3        4        1        2   
e --------------------------------------------------------
B --------------------------------------------------------
G --------0-----------------------------------------------
D -----3-----------0--------0-----------------0--------0--
A --5-----------3--------2--------2--------2--------3-----
E -----------5--------0--------------0--3--------1--------

Jonny does delayed scratching a lot and sometimes plays
little delayed licks on the 4th beat:

    4   +	    4   +
e -------	e -------
B -------	B --2-4-- - (discordant)
G --2-0--	G ---H---
D ---P---	D -------
A -------	A -------
E -------	E -------


CHORUS RIFF (major) - 4/4:

Still playing triplets:

    1        2        3        4        1        2       (3)      (4)
e --------------------------------------------------
B --------------------------------------------0-----
G --------0--------0--------0--------0--------0-----
D -----1--------0--------5--------2-----2-----2-----
A --3--------1--------6--------3-----------3--2-----
E --------------------------------------------0-----


CHORUS RIFF (minor) - 4/4:

Still playing triplets:

    1        2        3        4        1        2       (3)      (4)
e --------------------------------------------------
B --------------------------------------------0-----
G --------0--------0--------0--------0--------0-----
D -----1--------0--------5--------1-----1-----2-----
A --3--------1--------6--------3-----------3--2-----
E --------------------------------------------0-----


Jonny does more delayed licks on the final 4th beat
of the above riff:
