CONFESSOR - The Annuals
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just found out there are no tabs for this! Thought I'd send in my thoughts.
The studio recording will differ with extra guitar parts.
Tuning:Standard, no capo for both guitars.
For starters, the rhythm chords:
B*: x2445x Em : 022000
A : x02220 F#m : 24422x <~ that's how he actually plays it, with his thumb on
the low E. Play it regularly if you want
B2 : x244xx B : x2444x
D : xx0232 E : 022100
B*
Pack up and leave everyday
I plant the s[A]eed to rip the roots away
And I bel[B2]ieve every word yo[F#m]u say calls the t[Em]hunder
and spooks off the p[D]ain (yep!)
And through the windows in the [Em]chapel
Is laying in[A] the morning [D]light
Every wick and every [Em]candle
Is laying in[A] the morning
B*
I'm here with your dress at night
I [A]confess, I confess, I [B2]confess
At the hem of y[F#m]our dress
I [Em]confess
To spook off the p[B]ain
It's when I always catch you [E]laughing
At the cusp of everyd[B]ay
It's when I always catch you g[E]rinning
It suits you well
B* - A - B2 - F#m - Em - D <~ This D he plays differently. Refer below to see how.
At this point the chorus is repeated(twice), and the song ends on D.
e|--2-0-2-3-2-0-2-0-2-0-2-3-2-0-2-0-----| B|--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----| G|--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-----| D|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-----| A|--------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------|
Guitar 2, for those interested:
Verse:
e|---0--0--0--0--0--0----2--2--2--2--2--2-----------------------------------------------| B|-----2--2--2--2--2--2h4--4--4--4--4--4--------2-3-2-----------------------------------| G|----4--4--4--4--4--4----4--4--4--4--4---2p1h2-2-2-2-------4-------4-------4-------4---| D|----------------------------------------2-----2-2-2--1h2h4-2-1-2h4-2-1-2h4-2-1-2h4-2-1| A|----------------------------------------------0-0-0-----------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
At this part, basically just strum~^
After that line, strum F#m and Em, and then play the chorus:
It's actually sorta strummed, but to help you figure out how, pick the following notes
very carefully, and then start making it sloppy, so you hit other notes at the same time.
e|-----5---5---5---5---5---5---5---5---5---7---7---7---7---7---7-10-9-7------| B|---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---8---8---8---8---8---8----------10-8-| G|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--9-9-9--9-9| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
The Verse repeats, followed by what is sort-of a bridge I guess;
e|----------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------7---------------7----------------------------------| G|--8-868-868-8-6-4/8-868-868-8-8-6-4-----------------------------| D|-----------------------------------66666-6h7-77-6-4------4------|x2 A|----------------------------------------------------7p6-7-7p6---| E|----------------------------------------------------------------|
Solo: Starts off at 4 because that's where your index should be anyways from
the bridge.
e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-----11-----9p8------9-9p8------------------------------------------------------| D|--4/9------9---9----9-----9------9-7-676-464-----7-6-464-4----------------------| A|--------7h9------7h9-------9-9-7------------4446--------7-7-777679-555----------| E|------------------------------------------------------------------7---7p5-5~3~2~|
The Chorus part plays again, except on the B string, he hammers 7h8 with his
pinky occasionally. The song ends there.
That's pretty much it. Good luck playing!
