Another Schism tab thread.

My band decided it would be fun to perform this song sometime, and so we took a whack at it last practice.

There's one section I'm having trouble with. I figured the rest of the song out by ear and a -lot- of practice, but the whole section with the "Cold silence haaaas" lyrics has me confused. I just can't seem to figure out what he's playing there. If anyone can tab that out for me that'd be great.

Thank you.
 
Thanks, I've seen that before and it got me close. I figured out what I was doing wrong.

It's:
G|-----12-----.......................................--5--.......................--7----7
D|--10----10- ("Cold silence has,") down to --3-- ("haaas,") up to ----5-- ("A tenden,")

back down
G|--5--..........................................................--7--.........-----12-----
D|--3-- ("cyyy tooo,") Then it briefly goes back to --5-- then --10----10-- ("Atrophy")

Down again to
G|--5--.......................--7----7--.........................--5--
D|--3-- ("aaanyyy"), up -----5---- ("sense of com,") --3-- ("paaa")--/7 [let ring]-----
A|----- ---------- ----- --0-0-0-0-0-0-0--

Hmm... This might not be the clearest explanation, but I hope it's understandable.

Lyric:
"Cold silence has
A tendency to
Atrophy any
Sense of compasion"
