My Assassin Lyrics

MY ASSASSIN - The Bled
Email: wtf.was.in.that.danish@gmail.com
Very awesome song, can't believe it didn't have a tab yet.
I've only got some of it so far but I should have the rest soon.
You should get the main idea of it from this.
_____________________________
INTRO / MAIN RIFF
0:00 - 0:09
A-0h1-0h1-0h1-0-0-|-0-0h1-0h1h3-0h1-|
The fourth time, omit the 2nd measure.
A-0h1-0h1-0h1-0-0-|
This can be kind of a complicated thing to get a hang of. Basically, always keep the
2nd fret covered on the C and F, but only strum whe indicated. Spend the rest of the
time hammering on the A. Also, the 2nd measure is a little fuzzy. Just screw with it.
_____________________________
0:10-0:31
Repeat main riff.
_____________________________
0:31-0:40
G-0--0--3--3-------3-|-3(just jam on this chord)|
The second time just jam on mutes instead of the power chord.
It's hard to tell just what's going on, so just screw with it.
Listen for the rhythm.
After the 3rd time, one guitar plays this chord into the chorus:
0:41-0:42
_____________________________
Rhythm:
0:42
0:44
0:47
0:50
(repeat twice)
Lead:
(enters on Rhythm's second time)
0:53 - 0:57
"Collapse, this is our last chance, there's no..."
0:58 - 1:03
"...time for relapse, just listen for the Flood."
Tremolo pick these really fast, listen to the song for exact timing.
1:03
"If not us, can I just save you?"
_____________________________
1:08
One guitar plays main riff twice...
A-0h1-0h1-0h1-0-0-|-0-0h1-0h1h3-0h1-|
...while the other enters on the second time with a D#5 chord:
1:11
"We must have been seduced by the ---"
Listen to the song for the timing. It's not too hard. It roughly follows the
vocal's rhythm.
_____________________________
1:14 - 1:34
Same as before.
_____________________________
Slightly different.
G-0--0--3--3-------3-|-3(just jam on this chord)|
Do this as before...
Then the guitar plays this chord like before, but for one more measure.
1:44-1:46
At the end of the 2nd measure, the other guitar plays mutes:
1:46
_____________________________
1:47 - 2:13
No changes here.
_____________________________
First, play the main riff four times, omitting the 2nd measure the 4th time (same as intro):
2:13 - 2:22 (with kickass drumsticks in the background)
A-0h1-0h1-0h1-0-0-|-0-0h1-0h1h3-0h1-|
A-0h1-0h1-0h1-0-0-|
Rest a measure, then play the main riff 12 times (while all the ambient snazz goes on),
again omitting the 2nd measure the last time.
2:23 - 2:54
A-0h1-0h1-0h1-0-0-|-0-0h1-0h1h3-0h1-|
A-0h1-0h1-0h1-0-0-|
_____________________________
2:55 - 3:03
Starts off with lead playing main riff 3 times:
A-0h1-0h1-0h1-0-0-|-0-0h1-0h1h3-0h1-|
While rhythm plays the D#5 chord, the same as in the bridge.
3:03 - 3:13
Rhythm continues playing this chord while lead bursts into a nuts breakdown.
I haven't gotten this yet, sorry.
_____________________________
Repeat the chorus, but replace the last part of the lead part with the solo.
_____________________________
3:35 - 3:37
3:38 - 3:40
3:40 - 3:45
(not tabbed yet)
3:46 - 3:48
3:48 - 3:51
3:51 - 3:56
Tremolo pick each for an entire measure.
3:57
"If not us, can I just save you?"
_____________________________
Yep, that's basically it. I have the missing part of the solo at home so I'll
put that in later. The breakdown is still driving me nuts.
Here's a rundown of all the sections for reference:
0:00 - 0:09 ----| INTRO
0:10 - 0:31 ----| VERSE
0:31 - 0:40 ----| PRECHORUS
0:42 - 1:07 ----| CHORUS
1:08 - 1:14 ----| BRIDGE
1:14 - 1:34 ----| VERSE
1:34- 1:46 -----| PRECHORUS
1:47 - 2:13 ----| CHORUS
2:13 - 2:34 ----| INTERLUDE
2:35 - 3:13 ----| BREAKDOWN
3:13 - 3:35 ----| CHORUS
3:35 - 4:00 ----| SOLO
Thanks to Jim for help with tabbing and The Bled for this kickass song.
