Man in the Box chorus

[DONZI97]

Anybody have accurate tabs for AIC Man in the Box? Everything on the net seems to be way off, particularly the chorus.

Thanks

From memory it should be something like this.

Eb, Gb, walk up from the Gb to Db, then walk down from the Db to Ab. Repeat through chorus. It`s pretty open to interpretation just as long as you hit the roots when needed.

+1 to above.

I had trouble with that one myself. Its a chromatic line but its really hard to tell by listening to the recordings, they have the bass mixed down so much its close to inaudiable. Most of the tabs I've run across are accurate even though they don't seem like it.

[Bassmingo]

no its not chromatic per se, the pre chorus would be closer to that. the chorus is more like this:

Chorus

My appologies, no debate he's right, I was thinking of the pre-chorus. My bad!

This entire song is tabbed out for guitar and bass in the December issue of Guitar World magazine.

Does anyone have that issue? I went to the web site, but they don't have any AIC tab listed.

The chorus chords are E, g, d, a (half step down on album).

If you don't care to play it exactly like the studio version....Just add some passing notes or walk up/down to the next note. This is what I do. Lock in with drummer and you'll be golden.

Walk the entire chorus, sounds awesome.

The chorus I have, it's the pre-chorus that is giving me trouble. Any suggestions?

[jmac]

Got it. Thanks BluesyCat.
