The Fad - Chevelle
This is a very easy song. Don't get fooled by how it looks. The rhythm is
relatively simple. The chorus needs to be listened to for timing, it can't
be specified with this kind of tableture. The latter half of the last
chorus is not entirely exact, but I just think he's pedaling the notes. If
you are skeptical, feel free to just repeat the first half.

Feel free to put in variations in the chorus, it is pretty open for
adjustment.

Yes, the preverse is an octave lower. Notice the pitch change as it
transitions into the verse. Also the slide at the end of the preverse is
just guitar, not bass.
