Approaching Curve by Rise Against -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE APPROACHING CURVE - Rise Against -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed By: Samuel Mobbs Email: bogan_bassist@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard (EADG) Tempo: 150 during verse, 65 during chorus and bridge pt. 2, 90 during bridge pt. 1 Scale: C# Major There are a lot of tempo changes in this song, it gets a little confusing sometimes. I suggest reading along with the tab while listening to the song before attempting to play it. The timing also changes from 4/4 to 3/4 for the bridge pt. 1. Anyways, enjoy and rate :D Play nothing during the Intro Verse G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
