This is my first tab so correct me if I’m wrong.
Description of scale from "Danimal93" who played guitar for the song.
"The whole middle song is mostly G minor pentatonic. Then there's weirdo middle section
mostly Chromatic and it switches to D Minor/Dorian with lots of chromatics and
for the entire end of the song."
It also includes A#/Bb Minor Blues Pentatonic for some parts, and for the intro
the TMNT theme, but I’m not sure what the scale is so I’ll call it Scale X until otherwise.
Scales:
G minor Pentatonic - G, A, B, B, E
A#/Bb Minor Blues Pentatonic - A#/Bb, C, C#/Db, D, F, G
D Minor/Dorian - D, E, F, G, A, B, C
Scale X - D#/Eb, E, F, F#/Gb, G, G#/Ab, A#/Bb, B, C, C#/Db
Tuning: Drop D
The second bar is like one of those Hammer ons bending things

(That riff is followed by a very simular riff)
In Between the riff at 01:18 and 01:31, there is this awesome harmony bit that is in D
and
is also played at 02:12, but it isn't in a harmony
After the harmony bit, this riff (which is simular to the riff in 00:51 - 01:05) shows up
01:31 (A#/Bb Minor Blues Pentatonic)

Ends at 02:12
A lot of the rhythm works around these chords, and notes and simular notes featured in
A#/Bb Minor Blues Pentatonic obviously in different position along the neck and in chords.
02:12 - 2:31
After the rhythm part there is this a variation of the awesome harmony bit in D
that is
played in between 01:05 and 01:13, except variation isn't a harmony at the start. It
Includes pretty mad finger runs.
02:31 - 02:40
During this Period there are some syncipated two hand tapping part finishing off and
the harmony during 02:12 - 2:31.
02:40 - 03:05
during that time there is some drum thing that goes on, and some rhythm guitar comes in
shown below) two seconds after.
With this bit it's gonna sound gay unless you time it out properly

This all I’ve figured out so far
Note: Most of these phases / riffs are repeated though out the song but vary.
This probably isn't the most detailed TAB but it's a start, please point out any
because this is my first TAB, and I would love to know how to play it.
I got a bit of help this Tab from danimal93 who I quoted before gave me information on
of the scale and all, and also gave me tabs for a riff I couldn't figure out. My guitar
and I figured out some of the rhythm bits, but I figured out most of the rhythm shown in
TABs.

p Pull off
