Blue �yster Cult "Sole Survivor" FIRE OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN Tabbed by Dave N. Intro: (x4 On the 4th time, stop on the open 6th string and let it ring) E---------------------| B---------------------| G---------------------| D--------2-0----------| A--0-2-3---------3-2--| E------------3-0------| Verse: (fingerpick these chords in different ways to get it to sound right, because I can't find a particular pattern) F There walked a lonely man Em Silent mute the only man F Not knowing how, not knowing why Em Was he the sole survivor F Why should he be alive Em Breathing still while others died F And the only question Em Why was he the sole survivor? [lead riff 1] Lead riff 1: E------------------| B------------------| G------------------| D------------------| A------------------| E--8-7-5-5---------| Chorus: \ = slide down the neck towards the nut A F G E--------------------------------------| (x4) B--------------------------------------| G--------------------------------------| D-----7\-------3\-------5\-------------| A-----7\-------3\-------5\-------------| E-5-5-5\---1-1-1\---3-3-3\--0-3--------| (So basically just hit the bass note twice then strum the full chord and slide it downwards toward the nut.) Chorus lyrics: Sole survivor Cursed with second sight Haunted savior Cried into the night Sole survivor Cursed with second sight Haunted savior Cried into the night That's all I have for now, but thats the majority of the song. And of course the tab will make more sense if you listen to the song. Feel free to add comments. Remember, this was all by ear but to me it sounds really good ( that might just be my ego talking =P )
