Regret TAB

Quite a trickly one to tab, this. I've decided to give

a rundown of the main features of the song rather than

try to tab every single strum. The rhythms are easy to

work out anyway.



First, the acoustic guitar parts. Here are the chords

(I made up some of the names for reference.) Note that

the chords are not always struck in full. Also, the same

chords are played on the clean guitar in the

'As I drift away...' and 'I wish I didn't know...' verses

are played with upstrokes (E-B-G-A-D-E strings), rather

than downstrokes as is more normal.



   Amin  Emin   F1   F2   F3   B1   B2   B3   B4   B5

E|--0-----0-----0----0----0---------------------------|

B|--1-----0-----0----5----6----12---10---12---10---13-|

G|--2-----0-----5----5----5----9----9----9----9----9--|

D|--2-----2-----3----3----3----9----9----0----0----0--|

A|--0-----2-----3----3----3----0----0----0----0----0--|

E|--------0-------------------------------------------|



The rhythm of the acoustic guitar is a simple, loose strum,

that's basically more or less improvised. This is the order

the chords come in.



Amin, Emin, Amin, Emin, F1, (F2, F3,) (F2, F3, F2, F1)



Bracketed sections come close together.



The verse begins 'As I drift away...' and both acoustic and

clean electric guitars enter, playing the same chords. Again

the acoustic pattern is loose and easy, whereas the clean

electric just plays chords off the main beats. The order of chords is:



Amin, Emin, Amin, Emin, F1, F3, F1, F3. (This takes us up to 'Loneliness...'



The chorus ('Visions of love and hate...'):

The clean guitar plays

E|7-77-770-0-0-X4-7-77-775-5-558-8-88-8875-X2--|

B|-------0-0-0---------------------------------|

G|---------------------------------------------|

D|---------------------------------------------|

A|---------------------------------------------|

E|---------------------------------------------|

  B1     B2    X4 B3     B4    B5       B3B4 X2

The acoustic guitar strums these chords, in the same rhythm.



During 'And sometimes I despair...' the acoustic guitar

plays these chords without the clean electric guitar.



In the second chorus, the distorted guitar joins in.

E|------------------------------------------------|

B|------------------------------------------------|

G|------------X4--------------------------------Z2|

D|9-99-997-7-7----9-99-995-5-5510-10-1010-101097--|

A|7-77-777-7-7----7-77-777-7-777--7--7-7--7-7-77--|

E|------------------------------------------------|



After this, and again during 'I know there is a way...',

the distorted guitar plays:

E|---------------------------------------------------0---|

B|-----------------------------------------------0---0---|

G|-----------------------------------------------0---2---|

D|10--9---9---7---10--9---9------10--9---9---7---2---2---|

A|7---7---5---5---7---7---5------7---7---5---5---2-------|

E|-----------------------------------------------0-------|
