Story Of The Eye Tab

   
STORY OF THE EYE by EYEHATEGOD (Southern Discomfort)
TAB by: Pez            story_of_the_eye@start.com.au
TUNING: C#

This is another great EHG song that's easy to learn and play.  
This song originally appeared on the Ruptured Heart Theory 
single but has re-appeared on the 2000 album Southern Discomfort.

This album has a weird tuning to it, sort of 20-30cent above C#.  
I used C# as a go between as all their other albums seem to be 
tuned in that step. Strange.

The song is played in a clean, fuzzy tone.....

Intro:

 G|-----------------------------------|
C#|-----------------------------------|

C#|-8-10-3-5-3-5---8-10-3-5-3-5-7-6-5-|

Intro repeats twice then second guitar joins.

C#|-8-10--3-5-3-5-7-6-5---8-10-3-5-3-5-7-6-5-|

This stanza part is repeated a few times (i think it 
only last for three passes) then Stanza A2 is played.
