CHOSEN ARMIES - Children Collide

Tuning: Standard
I tabbed this so it would be easier to play, especially on 21-fretted guitars.
Intro - All tremolo (picking fast)
_
e|---------------------------- ||
B|--5/--9/--12/--3\--2/--3\--- ||
G|---------------------------- || x4
D|---------------------------- ||
A|---------------------------- ||
E|---------------------------- _||
You could probably get away with using you index finger and simply sliding to each note.
On second run-through, bass comes in, and after two more repeats, the next riff plays.
_
e|------16--19---------------- ||
B|--17----------15--14--15---- ||
G|---------------------------- || x3
D|---------------------------- ||
A|---------------------------- ||
E|---------------------------- _||
e|------16--19----------------|
B|--17----------15--14--15~~--|
G|----------------------------|
D|----------------------------|
A|----------------------------|
E|----------------------------|
On the fourth run-through of this riff:
Hold the 15, and play around with some effects until about 00:25
Verse.
Now for the verse, it's basically the same chord just with a rhythm of up and down
sweeps of the pick.
Try not to hit the e, B and E strings, at least, not yet
"Sound in time until I find a place where I can touch the frozen ground"...
e|------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------|
G|--13-13-13--13--13----13--13--13-13-13----|
D|--14-14-14--14--14----14--14--14-14-14----|
A|--14-14-14--14--14----14--14--14-14-14----|
E|------------------------------------------|
Now change to a bar chord. I'm not entirely sure on the chord but it sounds about right.
"Are we waiting?"...
e|--12-12-12--12--12----12--12--12-12-12----|
B|--12-12-12--12--12----12--12--12-12-12----|
G|--13-13-13--13--13----13--13--13-13-13----|
D|--14-14-14--14--14----14--14--14-14-14----|
A|--14-14-14--14--14----14--14--14-14-14----|
E|--12-12-12--12--12----12--12--12-12-12----|
Chorus.
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/children_collide/chosen_armies_tab_ver_2.html ]
Now we get to the ...chorus? Anyway, it's the part where the song suddenly
distorts itself to shreds.
e|-----------------------------|
B|-----------------------------|
G|--------9--9--7--7--3-3-3-3--|
D|--2--2--9--9--7--7--3-3-3-3--|
A|--2--2--7--7--5--5--1-1-1-1--|
E|--0--0-----------------------|
e|------------------------------|
B|------------------------------|
G|--------9--9--7--7----^3------|(sharply bend this one up and hold)
D|--2--2--9--9--7--7------------|
A|--2--2--7--7--5--5------------|
E|--0--0------------------------|
e|-----------------------------|
B|-----------------------------|
G|--------9--9--7--7--3-3-3-3--|
D|--2--2--9--9--7--7--3-3-3-3--|
A|--2--2--7--7--5--5--1-1-1-1--|
E|--0--0-----------------------|
Back to Intro
Repeat both riffs twice.
Verse again
Approx. 1:54 - "Lining up like armies marching into brainwashed colourless despair"
Then back to Chorus, hold the ^3 until 3:08
Now for the bass....
And at around 3:35, come back to the Verse "Are we waiting?"
*SCREAM*
3:47
Back to Chorus
Now, overlaid against the Chorus is a tremolo solo-type riff. I've tried to tab it, but
can't get the 2 notes. I'm pretty sure this sounds about right.
4:00 (All tremolo)
e|--12--19--12--19--12--19--12--19--12--19--12--19--12--19--12--19--12--19---|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|--12--^19~-----------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
And hold the 19 while it's bent.
And you're done!
Thanks for reading this, comments/corrections would be great. This is my first tab.
