Cannon - Self
Original tab by - Scott Martin and Eric Andre
Reworked and finished by - Gwyndollwn Christian
Notes: This tab isn't too difficult. It's not 100% correct, mostly because there's a lot
of variation in the
verses. Use this tab pretty much as a guideline, not as a Bible. Spots for where to
switch distortion on and
off are omitted because they're insanely obvious. Palm mutes, just do it where you feel.
Also, the octave riff
kind of changes for the third and fourth times, which I did my best to notate, but
again, play what you feel,
don't use this strictly, more like a template for you to build on.
Notation guide:
/7 == slide up from previous note/nothing
\7 == slide down from previous note/nothing
7~ == sustain note/chord
7^8 == bend up
7^8^7 == bend up then back down
7* == vibrato
//7 == slide up from previous note while picking the new note
\\7 == slide down from previous note while picking the new note
