The Most Beautiful Bitter Fruit

La Dispute

Intro/Verse Guitar 1 (the empty low E string might be played along with the E chord, not sure about that) e|---------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---8-8--8-8-8--8-8-8-----------13-13--13-13-13--13-13-13-------------| G|---9-9--9-9-9--9-9-9-----------14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14-------------| D|---9-9--9-9-9--9-9-9----9--7---14-14--14-14-14--14-14-14----9--7-----| A|---7-7--7-7-7--7-7-7---10--9---12-12--12-12-12--12-12-12---10--9-----| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------| Guitar 2 (joins at 0:25 with their singer) e|--------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------| the second part is very hard to hear G|--------------------------------------------| So I guess it's wrong D|-----9-------9---------------7----9----7----| A|---7-----7-7-------------------10---10------| E|--------------------------------------------| "all these secrets I keep..." e|----------------| B|--8-8-----8-8---| G|--9-9-----9-9---| D|--9-9-----9-9---| A|--7-7-----7-7---| E|--0-0-----0-0---| Chorus 1 e|---------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------| G|--9--7--5-------------4--5--2--5--7----| D|--9--7--5---7-9-\-5---4--5--2--5--7----| A|--7--5--3---7-9-\-5---2--3--0--3--5----| E|------------5-7-\-3--------------------| e|---------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------| G|--9--7--5-------------4--5---9-9-9\----| D|--9--7--5---7-9-\-5---4--5---9-9-9\----| A|--7--5--3---7-9-\-5---2--3---7-7-7\----| E|------------5-7-\-3--------------------| The second time round, one guitar plays this melody over the chord (X577XX) e|-------------| B|-------------| G|-------------| D|---7-7-9\5---| A|-------------| E|-------------| Bridge 1 ("no pauses, ...) Alright, this part was pretty hard to tab, I even watched some live videos of them playing it. On those videos, I saw that something was played before the 5-3-0 2-0 thing, but I have no idea what it might be, I can't hear it on the record. Also, this is actually played on the string, but without the part before it, it doesn't really matter where you play it...
