Desperate Times, Desperate Measures Underoath
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Desperate Times Desperate Measures - Under0ath ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Tucker Yates Email: guitaristtuck@aim.com Tuning: Drop D (D-A-D-G-B-E) -Thanks to Nick Desmond for correcting the 2nd guitar part in the 2nd part of the His tab of this section is much more accurate than mine was! Notes: Hopefully I'll get this out before the new album, so anyone who notices that this is an song and wants to know how to play it will be able to do so. A couple of things to consider: In the intro, i'm not sure about the muted chords. They could be either D, D#, or E, but sounded like D# to me. You choose for yourself. The # marks in the bridge don't represent sharps, they represent random feedback. The 4th Chord in the second part of the bridge may be an A, not an A#. That's pretty much it. Underoath rocks and i hope i did their new song justice with this tab!
