Artist - Building 429
Song - Glory Defined
Album - Glory Defined EP
Tabbed by - MJ_Avalanche (Mike)
Tuning - DbAbDbGbAbDb (I used DbAbDbGbBbEb instead.)
Time Sig - 4/4
Tempo - Around 85
I saw them live a couple weeks ago and I personally wouldn't recommend that
tuning for this song, because the chord forms that they use don't work in
that tuning. I would use dropped-D and tune down a half step from there.
Intro Riff:
-------------------------------
eb
-------------------------------
Bb
-------------------------------
Gb
---7--7--4-2-5--4--------------
Db
---5--4--2-0-5--4---------4-5--
Ab
---0---------5--4--0-0-4-5-----
Db
Play that intro 2x and on the second time, let the "5" (Gb) ring.
The verse sounds like arpeggiated "powerchords" of the following chords.
(Vertical lines indicate measures. First 3 measures )
AD(AED(Bb/CDb
In that last measure (Bb) before the chorus, there's a "chunk-chunk" on the
guitars on beat 4. One guitar does a muted strum on 4+. The other hits the
open Db powerchord on the same beats.
Chorus:
------------------------------------------
eb
------------------------------------------
Bb
------------------------------------------
Gb
---7--7--4--5------------4--5--4-2-4--5-2-
Db
---5--4--2--5------------4--5--2-0-4--5-2-
Ab
---0--------5------------4--5------4--5-2-
Db
Guitar 2's riffs on the chorus (placed according to where they go in relation
to the chords):
--------------10-8-7h8p7-------7-9--------
Bb
--------\7-------------------------9------
Gb
[NOTE: Don't play the first two riffs during the first chorus. From the
second time on, play the second one, and on the final choruses after the
bridge play it then.]
Back to the intro (2x), then the verse, played identically to the first verse.
The chorus then repeats itself and moves on to the bridge.
Bridge:
---------------------
eb
---------------------
Bb
---4--2--7-----------
Gb
---4--2--7--5--7--5--
Db
---2--4--5--5--7--5--
Ab
---------0--5--7--5--
Db
Afterwards, repeat the chorus 2 times, and then repeat the intro at the end
and hang on to the Gb and let it ring to end the song.
So, the song moves like:
Intro 2x
Verse 1 1x
Chorus 1x
Intro 2x
Verse 2 1x
Chorus 1x
Bridge 1x
Chorus 2x
Intro 2x
Easy song, but a good song. If you want the lyrics goto:
