Here are the symbols I use: *=natural harmonic h=hammer on p=pull off s=slide b=bend ~=vibrato w=whammy bar ^=accent r=let ring Intro w ~ E|------------------------------| B|---------5----5----5----------| G|-7*------7b9--7b9--7b9-7------| D|-------------------------5----| A|---------------------------7--| E|------------------------------| Main Riff [ Fill 1 ] ^ ^ r ^ ^ r ^ ^ r ~ E|------------------------------|--------| B|-------3--3------3--3------3--|--------| G|-------0--0------0--0------0--|---0----| D|-2--2------2--2------2--2-----|0h2-----| A|-2--2------2--2------2--2-----|-----2--| E|-0--0------0--0------0--0-----|--------| The main riff is repeated 4 times, but the fill changes each time: Fill 2 ~ E|------------| B|-3p0--------| G|----3p2p0---| D|---------2--| A|------------| E|------------| Fill 3 ~ E|------------| B|-3s5--------| G|----4p2p0---| D|---------2--| A|------------| E|------------| Fill 4 ~ E|---------| B|---------| G|----0----| D|-4p2--2--| A|---------| E|---------| Fill 5 w E|----0----0--| B|-3s5--3s5---| G|------------| D|------------| A|------------| E|------------| Fill 6 w E|------------| B|-(3)--------| G|-(0)--------| D|------------| A|------------| E|------------| And then the song moves to the chorus: Chorus ^ ^ r ^ ^ r ^ ^ E|-----------------------------| B|-------5--5-------3--3-------| G|-------6--6-------4--4-------| D|-------5--5-------3--3-2--2--| A|-7--7--7--7-5--5--5--5-2--2--| E|-5--5-------3--3-------0--0--| Then a mini-solo is played followed by the chorus again which is followed by another mini-solo. Here are the two mini-solos: Mini-solo 1 ~~ E|----------------------------| B|-13b15----13-10-------------| G|----------------13-14-10----| D|----------------------------| A|----------------------------| E|----------------------------| Mini-solo 2 ~~ E|----------------------------| B|----------------------------| G|------10h12-12b14--p10------| D|-10h12----------------14----| A|----------------------------| E|----------------------------| After the second mini-solo, a variation of the chorus is played. Chorus (variation 1) ^ ^ r ^ ^ r ^ ^ E|-----------------------------------------------| B|-------5--5-------3--3-10-10-10-10-9--9--9--9--| G|-------6--6-------4--4-11-11-11-11-10-10-10-10-| D|-------5--5-------3--3-10-10-10-10-9--9--9--9--| A|-7--7--7--7-5--5--5--5-12-12-12-12-11-11-11-11-| E|-5--5-------3--3-------10-10-10-10-9--9--9--9--| This variation is immediatley followed by the next part, Riff 2. Riff 2 ^ ^ E|---------| B|---------| G|---------| D|---------| A|-14--14--| E|-12--12--| After Riff 2, several solos follow. The solos are separated by Riff 2, which is supported by the bass. Solo 1 ~~ E|----------------------------| B|-15b17----15-12-------------| G|----------------15p14p12----| D|----------------------------| A|----------------------------| E|----------------------------| Solo 2 ~~ E|----------------------------| B|----------------------------| G|---------12-14b16-14p12-----| D|-14p12h14--------------14---| A|----------------------------| E|----------------------------| Solo 3 E|----------------------------| B|---------14-14--14b15--14---| G|------12-14-14--14b15--14-12| D|-12h14----------------------| A|----------------------------| E|----------------------------| Solo 4 r r E|------------------------------| B|------15-15b17-15p12----------| G|-14b16--------------15p14p12--| D|----------------------------14| A|------------------------------| E|------------------------------| After the solos are played, the drums start to build speed while the guitar plays this. Outro E|-15p14p12----------------| B|---------15p14p12--------| G|-----------------15p14p12| D|-------------------------| A|-------------------------| E|-------------------------| This part gets faster with the drums. When the drums reach their fastest, the guitar part changes. Outro E|------------------| B|------------------| G|-12-15-12-15-12-15| D|------------------| A|------------------| E|------------------| This part is repeated several times, speeding up each time, finally matching speed with the drums. Tremelo picking is required. Then the drums and bass and guitar all stop. Two beats later, the guitar enters with this: Intro 2 w E|-----------5-8-8b10-8p5---------------------| B|-8b10-8p5h8------------8p5------------------| G|--------------------------8p7p5-------------| D|-------------------------------7p5----------| A|----------------------------------7p5-------| E|-------------------------------------8p5----| The song is repeated with variations of the fills, mini-solos, and solos. The outro repeats, but instead of going back into the song, the guitar ends on an E chord with feedback. Listen to the song and you can pick out the variations. Soon, I'll post more Decree songs. -Dillon
