The Mars Volta Vicarious Atonement Lyrics

Vicarious Atonement - The Mars Volta
This is my first tab, and before you see look at it you should know that, this is not
whole song. I left out a few scales and the guitaring in the background. The scales are
to figure out however, and the background guitar I am still trying to figure out. (With the effects and all)
I tabbed this out for 3 guitars. Guitar 2's part however, is short.
00:27
Distortion, maybe a bit of delay
Guitar 1:
12's and 10's.
1:18
Guitar 2 w/cool effect: Guitar 1 and 3 play this right after:
Guitar 2: plays the same riff, but I think a bit lower on the fret board.
Guitar 1 and 3:
Solo: I don't know the solo up until 2:00
Guitar 1 and 3:
riffs as many times as needed.
2:11
Only Guitar 1 now:
2:27 "Don't you pretend...... That I'm not alive....."
lyrics because the guitar harmonizes with the vocals. These 3 riffs are basically
untill:
"Where is your face?"
the above riffs until 3:56
3:56:
Guitar 1:
4:49 Interlude:
guitar 2 is playing, and most of it sounds very easy. I'll figure it out later. But this
what the piano is playing.
The rest just sounds like improvisation, so I won't bother tabbing it.
