Since nobody has sent a song tab of Genocideto any FTP yet, I thought I'd lay down my version. Enjoy! Intro: G F C E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G----------------5--------------------------------------- D------5----3----5--------------------------------------- A------5----3----3--------------------------------------- E------3----1-------------------------------------------- They're the chords - I hate tabbing rhythm, but I use sort of `d dudu u dd', and finger mute in the fast `dudu' you'll get a nice sound, which will be pretty much what offspring have. Riff 1: E-------------------------------------------------------- B---11-11-11-10-10-11-11-13-13-13-11-11-11-10-10----10-10 G------------------------------------------------10------ D-------------------------------------------------------- A-------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------- B---10-10h11--10----------------------------------------- G--------------------9-9-9-9h10p9----9------------------- D-----------------10--------------12--------------------- A-------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------- This is just the upper range on a D Aeolian (major) I forget how many times it is played (2, I think)...but just listen to the CD and count `em... :) Verse 1: No guitar...but you could play the bass notes - G, F, C - if you get too bored... :P (BTW: I haven't got the words...in case you haven't noticed...) At the end, there's a bit of a solo on G, on the D string - the 5th fret. It's all distorted anyway, so the rhythm doesn't matter so much. Chorus: Dog Eat dog...(something like that... :P ) G bB F C E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G---------------10----5---------------------------------- D-----5----8----10----5---------------------------------- A-----5----8----8-----3---------------------------------- E-----3----6--------------------------------------------- Rhythm? I double strum a bit because it feels good. ;) Otherwise, I guess you could match the singer...but I reckon anything would sound good, since the distortion is probably up to 10 already... Then, play that riff a few times (again, how many is something beyond my knowledge...) Verse 2: Same story as 1 - it's mostly bassy... at the end, play the intro chords - G, F, C. Bridge: Our time is up..... bE C E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G----8-----------5--------------------------------------- D----8-----------5--------------------------------------- A----6-----------3--------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------- One two three four.... Chorus - G, bB, F, C Riff 1 Riff 2: E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G-------------------------------------------------------- D-------------------------------------10---10---10---10-- A-----5---5---5---5---8---8---8---8-8----8----8----8----- E---3---3---3---3---6---6---6---6------------------------ E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G-------------------------------------------------------- D-----5---5---5---5---(etc)------------------------------ A---3---3---3---3---------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------- Okay: this is palm muted, with big-time distortion. I reckon it'd be nice to chuck the reverb on a bit, too, but I haven't yet tried it. They are just powerchords (same chords as the chorus). I don't know how many times to repeat (my big failing... :P ) but just listen to the CD and count `em... To end up: Chorus Riff 1 End on a G powerchord and let ring... E-------------------------------------------------------- B-------------------------------------------------------- G-------------------------------------------------------- D----5---(let ring)-------------------------------------- A----5--------------------------------------------------- E----3--------------------------------------------------- There ya go folks! Great song (nice riff) - Enjoy!
