Year of the Snake Lyrics
by Chimaira
##
##This is my cover of the song, it's not perfect, and my webcam's not cr*p, but not
that great either -
## ---- /watch'v=pUrj2QZbqvU
##
Tuning - dropped C
## Intro:
## Drums kicks in
|--3--4----8--7-------4\----------| play and slide backwards
## Growl starts, this is going to be the main riff
this pattern can be slightly tricky, I see them as quadruplets(4x). Same as
triplets(3x), but just add the extra note. up-down-up-down
very fast xDD
accentuate last note |
## Verse 1
Chocking on these feelings | awakening has been at arms length
for too long, It's hard to accept | when all I had was their words
I've seen the devil and I've kissed the mouth of sin
Bloodshot eyes and senses heightened, I am seeking to get in
## pre-chorus ( i guess =P )
These chains! No longer bound me | I'm shedding my skin once again
## Chorus
In the year, In the year of the snake
slide to fret 14 and super bend
## main riff again, slightly modified
## verse 2
I was born into a world of | pain and heartache, Isolation
was the key to unlocking my | soul,Now the story will be told
## repeat
I've seen the devil and I've kissed the mouth of sin
Bloodshot eyes and senses heightened, I am seeking to get in
## pre-chorus 2
These chains! No longer bound me | I'm shedding my skin once again
## Chorus
In the year, In the year of the snake
## BREAKDOWN!!! now this is the fun part, if you get your pinch harmonics right, it
should sound exactly the same! :D
## p5 you pinch 6, then you pull off to 5. is note pinched, p is pull-off
## b you pinch, then bend it, listen to the song for timing, it's a slow bend
last part after the 00-0000, is played very fast.
just do a random slide at the end of this part^
slide down from 14 for this part^
## The Next 2 parts are similar to the intro, so just redo the intro and drums-kicks-in part.
## Outro
slide up to 15 and slide down.
In the yearrrrrr of the... snake.
or inquiries.
Keep it f**king Heavy!
