Trigun: H.T. Tabbed by: Kent Le (double_deuce@hotmail.com) Comments: what a killer opening theme song! This thing rocks, however I play it (acoustic, electric - clean, or electric - distorted) It's actually pretty simple, well, the rhythm part anyways....the solo thing in the middle of the song eludes me as to how it was played...perhaps a whammy bar? I dunno. Anyways, here is the rhythm part. Be warned, it is a little fast. UPDATE: thanks to Shawn M., the tab is now complete. The solo has been both included here and separately -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is the song, played in pieces (by me, MP3 format) Part A Part B Part C Part D Part E And the complete song: complete -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ("verse") ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A -----------------------3-----------------3--------------------3------3-----5--5--------- --0--3--4--5--3--4--5-----5--4--3--4--5-----3--4--5--3--4--5------5-----5--------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B -----------------------3-----------------3--------------------3------3-----3------------ --0--3--4--5--3--4--5-----5--4--3--4--5-----3--4--5--3--4--5------5-----5-----5--3--5--- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A -----------------------3-----------------3--------------------3------3-----5--5--------- --0--3--4--5--3--4--5-----5--4--3--4--5-----3--4--5--3--4--5------5-----5--------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A -----------------------3-----------------3--------------------3------3-----5--5--------- --0--3--4--5--3--4--5-----5--4--3--4--5-----3--4--5--3--4--5------5-----5--------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B -----------------------3-----------------3--------------------3------3-----3------------ --0--3--4--5--3--4--5-----5--4--3--4--5-----3--4--5--3--4--5------5-----5-----5--3--5--- ("chorus") b r p b r p b r p ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----5--7-------7--5-------------5--7--------7^(9)^7^5--7^(9)^7^5--7^(9)^7^5-----------5------------------- --7--5--7-------7--5--7-------7--5--7-----------------------------------------5--6--7---------------------- C --7--3--5-------5--3--7-------7--3--5-----------------------------------------------------7--6--5---------- --5-------------------5-------5--------------------------------------------------------------------8------- THE FOLLOWING WAS INSERTED INTO THE TAB BY SJ (kirei_008@hotmail.com) AND HIS ARROGANT THOUGHTS HAVE NO AFFILIATION TO KENT LE, THE CREATOR OF THE TAB; "I think the chorus is played like so; ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----5--7-- should be -7--5--7-- -7--5--7-- replaced -7--5--7-- -7--3--5-- with -5--3--5-- -5-------- ---------- besides that, the rest of the chorus seems good."

><><><><>andforof<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>< someone sent me this; "the trigun i just sent is alot less confusing than the one you made....i dont think some of that stuff is necessary, but then again i am pretty new at the guitar" Here's the order in which to play the parts: A, B, then A two times, followed by C, D, E, F, then back to A, B, A, C, D, and finish with G (A note about the tab - There are several places where hammer-ons and pull-offs will greatly facilitate your playing. However, I didn't write in most of them for the sake of neatness. If you just play it through you should be able to find the places where they are needed. One example is at the end of part C, where you should use quick, fluttering hammer-ons and pull-offs) Part A e|------------------------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------------------------| G|------------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------------7-7-| A|---------------3b------------3---------------3b---3b----5-5-| E|-0-3-4-5-3-3-5-----5-3-2-3-5-----2-3-5-2-2-3----5----5------| Part B e|-----------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------3b------------3---------------3b---3b----3--------| E|-0-3-4-5-3-3-5-----5-3-2-3-5-----2-3-5-2-2-3----5-----5----5-3-5-| Part C e|----------------------------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------------------------------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------3b-----------3--------------3b----3b---3---------------| E|-0-3-4-5-3-3-5----5-3-2-3-5----2-3-5-2-2-3----5-----5----5-3-53535353-| Part D e|--------------------------------| B|--------------------------------| G|----5--7----7--5--2-----2--5--7-| D|-7--5--7----7--5--2-----2--5--7-| A|-7--3--5----5--3--0-----0--3--5-| E|-5------------------------------| (really fast lick) e|----------------------------------------------------| B|--7b(9)r7p5---7b(9)r7p5--------------5--------------| G|------------7-----------7------5h6h7----------------| D|---------------------------------------7p-5b(6)r5\3-| A|----------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| Part E e|-----------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------| G|-7--5-6-7--5-6-7-5--------5-6-7--5-6-7--5-6-7-6--7-6-| D|-7--5-6-7--5-6-7---7----7-5-6-7--5-6-7--5-6-7-6--7-6-| A|---------------------5-------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------------| e|----------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------6---6-| G|-7--5-6-7--5-6-7-5--------5-6-7--5-6-7--5-6-7-6-7-6-| D|-7--5-6-7--5-6-7---7----7-5-6-7--5-6-7--5-6-7---7---| A|---------------------5------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| e|----------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------6---6-| G|-7--5-6-7--5-6-7-5--------5-6-7--5-6-7--5-6-7-6-7-6-| D|-7--5-6-7--5-6-7---7----7-5-6-7--5-6-7--5-6-7---7---| A|---------------------5------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| e|------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------| G|-7-8-9--7-8-9--7-8-9-7--------7-8-9-| D|-7-8-9--7-8-9--7-8-9---9----9-7-8-9-| A|-------------------------7----------| E|------------------------------------| Part F e|-9b(12)--7p6p5--------5-----------------------------------| B|---------------8b(10)---/10-------------------------------| G|-----------------------------9-----------9-8b-9-8b-9-8b-9-| D|-------------------------------9p8p7\5--------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------------| Part G e|-------------| B|-------------| G|-2-----------| D|-2-------x-\-| A|-0-------x-\-| E|---------x-\-| symbols used: h - hammer on p - pull off b - bend to (x) r - release / - slide up \ - slide down x - muted string questions, comments, corrections? send to llamatrauma@homestead.comTrigun H.T.
