Artist: Coal Chamber
Song: Loco
Tuning: drop to D
Ok, I watched allot of Loco tabs, sadly non of them is correct from the beginning to the
most of them have one part correct and the wrest is totally wrong! Here is how the song
(I belief) most correct:
Intro: The intro in most of the Loco tabs is wrong (I am not sure my version in correct
here is how it sounds better):
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| To make the song sound the way it
|---0------0--0--0-0-0--0------0--0--0-0----------------------------------| is supposed to sound you need to
|-4---44~-4--4--4-4-4--3-333~-3--3--3-3-----------------------------------| add heavy delay or echo (if
|----------------------------------------| possible both) to this intro--|
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| And overdrive...
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
You repeat the intro couple of times then play the next:
You need to switch to heavy distortion fast after the drum solo
|----------| Let the strings ring long time (about 15 sec.)
|----------|
|----------|
|-0~~~~~~~-|
|-0~~~~~~~-|
|-0~~~~~~~-|
Next is the main part of the song. Goes like this:
|-------------------------------------------------| The muted sound here
|-------------------------------------------------| is tricky so it is a
|-------------------------------------------------| bit harder than it seams
|-------------------------------------------------|
|-0404040454-04040404109-0404040454-0404~-44-0109-|
|-0202020232-020202028 7-0202020232-0202~-22-08 7-|
********** ******** ********** *** ** *
The second time you play this, it goes a bit different
|-----------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------|
|-0404040454-04040404109-0404040454-0404~-44-3~-|
|-0202020232-020202028 7-0202020232-0202~-22-5~-|
********** ******** ********** *** **
Then you repeat the old part again.

After the intro, Maags uses Wah pedal. Goes like this:
|---------------------------------------------------------------| no mute here
|---------------------------------------------------------------| couse of the
|---------------------------------------------------------------| wah effect
|---------------------------------------------------------------| added
|-4~~~~~~0404040454-04040404109-4~~~~~~~~~~-04040404109---------|
|-2~~~~~~0202020232-020202028 7-2~~~~~~~~~~-020202028 7---------|
After this comes the chorus. Goes like this:
|-------------------------------------------------------| You let the string
|-------------------------------------------------------| ring again.
|-------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------0~~~~~~~|
|-4-4--44-4-4--44-4-4-44-3-3--33-3-3--33-3-3-33-0~~~~~~~|
|-2-2--22-2-2--22-2-2-22-1-1--11-1-1--11-1-1-11-0~~~~~~~|
* * * * * * * * * * * *
After that part you play the main again. At the second chorus it goes a bit different
use the wah pedal):
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------55555555555555-------------|
|-----------------------------33333333333333-------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|-4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-04040404109----------------04040404109-|
|-2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-020202028 7----------------020202028 7-|
After is the chorus. Difference is that you allmost dont let the string ring this time
the end. Then play the next 4 times.
|---------|
|---------|
|---------|
|---------|
|-3430343-|
|-1210121-|
*******
In the next part add some delay effect. That's not the exact number of times you need to hit the string.
|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
|-55555555666666555555566666677755555555666666668888888810101010101010-|

|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
After that you play the intro again. The rest is all the same as before.
Easy song, only problem is that you need good guitar and good effects to make it sound perfect. Enjoy!
