CATHERINE - SAINT
from the Sorry Album
Transcribed by Adam Morris
Is it just me or does this song remind anyone else
of Geek USA?? Anyway here is my best attempt at how
this song is played. Seems to be the song that most
people think RAWKS the most :)
TUNING: Dropped D (D A D G B E)
Starts with drums, noise, effects and bass.
MAIN RIFF
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|-0--0-0--2--0-0-0-0-0--9----------------------------|
|-0--0-0--2--0-0-0-0-0--9----------------------------|
|-0--0-0--2--0-0-0-0-0--9----------------------------|
A little way into the verse it goes to this.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----------------|
|---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----------------|
|---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----------------|
Then back to the main riff twice then to this.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|
|---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|
|---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/catherine/saint_tab_ver_2.html ]
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|---3-3----3--3--------------------------------------|
|---3-3----3--3--------------------------------------|
|---3-3----3--3--------------------------------------|
Then it enters into the chorus
For the first "Won't You be..." it is just that main riff.
For the second I am really unsure about, but I THINK it
is something like this.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|-0--0-0--/9--0--0-0--/9-----------------------------|
|-0--0-0--/9--0--0-0--/9-----------------------------|
|-0--0-0--/9--0--0-0--/9-----------------------------|
After the second chorus it plays this many times, with
the main riff in between each time.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|-2--4--5----7-5-4-----------------------------------|
|-2--4--5----7-5-4-----------------------------------|
|-2--4--5----7-5-4-----------------------------------|
Then it stops and bass plays for a few bars.
Guitar then comes back in. It is played as below, but no
strumming is shown here, only the chord changes. Each
chord is strummed for one bar.
|-5---------3---------2------------------------------|
|-5---------3---------2------------------------------|
|-7---------5---------4------------------------------|
|-7---------5---------4---------5--------------------|
|-5---------3---------2---------5--------------------|
|-------------------------------5--------------------|
Stops and more bass. Back to the chorus.
The song finishes with a bent G-string G---13b(14)---
and then open D chord.
A lot of this is a bit rough, but it has
the general idea. Send any corrections
and comments to benmo@deakin.edu.au
I would love to hear from you :)
