I'd like to see someone's tab of Howard's Tale. I can figure it out for the most part, but I'm sure I'm missing stuff.
I believe the chorus is played with a 5 string bass but you can play similar on a 4 like this:
PRE-CHORUS
g-
d-
a-3-3---3-3-
e-
CHORUS 0:48
g-
d-6..---
a-----3..
e---------1..--4..-**-4

d-6..-------3h5----------------5----3-3--3-3--3--
a-----3-3-3-------------------------------------------
e-------------------------------------------------4-4--3-3--1
listen to the song for timing
(.. means play that note multiple times)
thank you so much.i'm also working on pitiful any insight on that would be great.i'm going to see the in two weeks in mass it will be the second time seeing them.but this time there headlining.thanks.Kasey

just rock out for the last chorus and smash your bass
cool where are you finding these tabs??? I've looked everywhere for the tabs off there new cd and could only find the old ones??? thanks a million.if you have the tabs for anywhere but here or the bottom I'd be intrested in those too.thanks kasey.
the intro is right everything else is wronge.she only plays the verse on the a string and the chorus is all done on the e. the little bass solo she does is all on the d string.she never uses the g at all.I just went and saw them live and she is awsome.
I make em
sorry; but it sounds very close on my bass
Yea in the verse I wasn't sure if those hits on the E string were the kick drum or what.
wow she must be very fast to play that on 1 string!
Hi I'm not bashing you at all.I've been to see them 2 times and you can watch her play it on you tube.her and shim do a little session together.thank you for the tabs.
just to let you know she tunes to cgcf. and uses warwick black label strings.she use 5 string set but only uses the bead strings no g. I've talked to her warwick dealer.I don't know why all there old songs off there first cd are tabed and all the new one's are hard to find.i'm going to post pitiful soon I learned it the right way.I'm also working on cancer.any help with it would be great.:bassist
They don't have a whole lot of the SP songs, but they do have some of the ones that you guys are looking for at Songsterr.com. You do have to join and pay a $9.90 a month subscription fee to print them out or see them full screen, but you can still use the site for free. It's not perfect, but it gets you real close. Sadly, no howards tale. And I've watched emma play it live, the tabs you guys have here are off. Sorry to tell ya.
I thought she tuned Bb F Bb Eb?
That's what I've heard/am hearing lately- I think "you're going down" uses that low Bb in the chorus
