Words And Music By Number One Fan
Transcribed By Ryan Tabor(LithiumPostScpt)



I sat and took some time to tab out a great but unnoticed song and band.

Enjoy and please let me know what you think!


Tuning: Standard



Intro/Verse:

|---x------2-x--------x------x-2-2-2-|
|---x------2-x--------x------x-2-2-2-|
|-1-x-11-1-3-x------1-x-11-1-x-3-3-3-| 
|-2-x-00-0-4-x-66-6-2-x-00-0-x-4-4-4-| 
|-2-x-22-2-4-x-66-6-2-x-22-2-x-4-4-4-|
|-0-x-44-4-2-x-44-4-0-x-44-4-x-2-2-2-|

Or


|---x------2-x--------x------x-2-2-2-|
|---x------2-x--------x------x-2-2-2-|
|---x------3-x--------x------x-3-3-3-| 
|-2-x------4-x------2-x------x-4-4-4-| 
|-2-x-22-2-4-x-22-2-2-x-22-2-x-4-4-4-|
|-0-x-44-4-2-x-44-4-0-x-44-4-x-2-2-2-|

Repeat this four times

Fill:

Guitar One:
 
|--------|   
|--------|   
|-4---3--|   Let Each Chord
|-2---4--|      Ring Out  
|-2---2--|
|-4---2--|   

Let each chord ring out

Guitar Two:

|-----------2----------2-------2-------xx|
|-4p2---2----4p2---2-------2-------2---xx|
|-----4---4------4---4---3---3---3---3-xx|  
|----------------------------------------| 
|----------------------------------------| 
|----------------------------------------|


|----------------------------------------|
|-----------7----------7-------7-------xx|
|-8p6---6----8p6---6-------6-------6---xx|  
|-----9---9------9---9---8---8---8---8-xx|  This is what he plays live
|----------------------------------------| 
|----------------------------------------|

Both sound the same, just play whatever one is more comfortable to you.

Chorus:

|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-2-22-2-|
|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-0-00-0-|
|-6-66-6-9-99-9-4-44-4-1-11-1-| 
|-9-99-9-9-99-9-4-44-4-2-22-2-| 
|-9-99-9-7-77-7-6-66-6-2-22-2-|  
|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-0-00-0-|

These are the chords, not the rhythm you strum!

There is also a piano riff in the chorus, simple translation.
It repeats.


|-14-11----|
|-------14-|
|----------| 
|----------| 
|----------|
|----------|

Post Chorus Fill:

|---x------x-2-|
|---x------x-2-|
|-1-x-11-1-x-3-|
|-2-x-00-0-x-4-|
|-2-x-22-2-x-4-|
|-0-x-44-4-x-2-|

Like the intro verse, but let it ring out this time.

Repeat the verse again, fill, and the chorus.

Bridge:

Guitar One:

|---------7---|
|-7---7-------|
|---8---8---8-|
|-------------| 
|-------------|
|-------------|

Repeat above riff till 2:01


Guitar Two: Comes in at 1:53

|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|---------------------------444-444-| 
|---1-1h2-1-------1-----444-222-111-| 
|-2---------2-222---2-2-222-222-222-|
|-------------000-----0-222---------|


Then play this fill roughly around 2:03

(It sounds like both guitars play this fill)

|-6-6h7-6/-|
|-7-7---7/-|
|----------| 
|----------| 
|----------|
|----------|

Guitar One:

|---------7----777777-777777-777777-| 
|-7---7--------777777-555555-444444-|
|---8---8---8-----------------------|
|-----------------------------------| 
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|


Guitar Two:

|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-| 
|---1-1h2-4-------x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-| 
|-2---------2-2/1\2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
|-----------------------------------|

Now around 2:14 Guitar Two just does
the rhythm of the chorus.

|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-7-77-7-|
|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-7-77-7-|
|-6-66-6-9-99-9-4-44-4-9-99-9-| 
|-9-99-9-9-99-9-4-44-4-9-99-9-| 
|-9-99-9-7-77-7-6-66-6-7-77-7-|  
|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-7-77-7-|

2:14 Guitar One

|--------------11-12-|
|-----12-11-12-------|
|-/11----------------| 
|--------------------| 
|--------------------|  
|--------------------|

Play four times Then:

|------------------------------------------------------|
|-11-11-11-11-11-11-12-12-12-12-12-12------------------|
|-------------------------------------11-11-11-11-11-11|
|------------------------------------------------------| 
|------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------|

Use some vibrato on these notes (Above)

|--------------11-12-7777-6666-99999999-|
|-----12-11-12-------7777-7777-99999999-|
|-/11-----------------------------------| 
|---------------------------------------| 
|---------------------------------------|  
|---------------------------------------|

Back to Chorus (Slight Change):

Chorus:

Guitar Two:

|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-2-22-2-|
|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-0-00-0-|
|-6-66-6-9-99-9-4-44-4-1-11-1-| 
|-9-99-9-9-99-9-4-44-4-2-22-2-| 
|-9-99-9-7-77-7-6-66-6-2-22-2-|  
|-7-77-7-7-77-7-4-44-4-0-00-0-|

Guitar One:

|--------------11-12-|
|-----12-11-12-------|
|-/11----------------| 
|--------------------| 
|--------------------|  
|--------------------|

Guitar one just repeats over and over til the end.

Then the outro is basically just :

|-7-77-7---77--7---77-|
|-7-77-7---77--7---77-|
|-7-77-7---77--7---77-| 
|-9-99-9p8-88--8h9-99-| 
|-9-99-9---99--9---99-|  
|-7-77-7---77--7---77-|

Play around with it, and be sure to listen to the album as reference.
Number One Fan was a great band. This is what I have heard off the album, if 
you have any corrections let me know.
