I noticed there was only one tab for Evil Nine and it sucked,
so I decided to do one of my "pearl"sonal favorites by them.
To play the bass part on guitar it needs the low E tuned down
to a C, with the rest really not mattering, but in this case
eb.
p = pulloff
s = slide
[] = chord
~ = let note ring
h = harmonic

At the end of each 2 line section of the chorus, another guitar does
a natural harmonic on either the 7th or 19th fret, shown below. To
bend the note, look past the nut of the guitar to where the string is
wound to the headstock, and press down on the string. This should let
it sound as if you were bending the note. Depending on how the machine
heads are aligned, difficulty to bend this certain string will vary.

"Blew my mind" is the same parts as Chorus, but with different
wording. Hence, repeat chorus.

This tab isn't 100% accurate, and probably never will be, but help
me clean up parts I might have gone screwy on. The video in question
I used is here:

Thanks, and have fun.
