Novelty -Joy Division
~~~~~~~
Transcribed by: John Mc Donagh(mcdonghj@unix2.tcd.ie)
I have only managed to figure out some bits of this so far. If you get any bits
that aren't here please mail them to me and add to my education:
Intro Riff:
e|------------------------------------------|
B|----1-----1------1------3-----------------|
G|---2-2---2--2---2--2---4-4----------------|
D|--------------0------2------ <------------|These notes are actually played on bass,
A|-0-----2-------------------- <------------|but if you're playing alone you need them.
E|------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|----1-----1------1----5--3--1------|
|---2-2---2--2---2--2-----------2---|
|--------------0-------2------------|
|-0-----2---------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
After that there is a kind of plucking riff which I can't figure out.
Then the main verse riff is like(get your own timings):
Em--palm mute-| D---------------------------|
e|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------2-2-2-----|
D|--5--5-5-5-5-5-5--4--4-5-4-0-2-2-2-2-2-2---2-2-2-2--4-4-5-4-4-4-0-0-0-0-0-----|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/joy_division/novelty_tab_ver_2.html ]
The solo at the end of the first verse is something like:
e|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--5^-5^-5^5p3h5--3-5--3-5--3-5--3-5^-3-------2-3-3-3-3-3--2-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----|
G|---------------------------------------0----------------------------------0-0-|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
This then goes back to the verse riff.
Then there is the second solo at the end of the second verse(get own timings):
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--5^-5^-5^5p3h5--3-5--3-5--3-5--3-5^-3-----2-3-3-3-3-3--2-3-3-3-3--------| ^=bend
G|---------------------------------------0---------------------------------| h=hammer
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| -on
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| p=pull-off
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|--------------------------------------------------------|
B|-5^5^5^5^5^5^---2-3-3-3-3-3--2-3-3-3-3-3-3-3------------|
G|---------------------------------------------0-0-0-0-0--|
D|--------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------|
G F# E D E D E
e|-----------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------|
Then there is a bit of a G|--7--7-7-7--6--6-6-6--4-4-2-4--4-4-4-2-4-----|
power chord fill. Play the D|--5--5-5-5--4--4-4-4--2-2-0-2--2-2-2-0-2---|
chords where ever you want. A|------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------|
Then the guitar plays a simplified version of the verse riff.
If you got to here you can manage the outro.
