Suddenly Superchick
Song: Suddenly
Album: Beauty From Pain
Tuning: Standard
Alright, this will be my first online tab that is not Thousand Foot Krutch. I
just realized how good this song is and felt like we needed a proper tab for
it. I also realized how freakin' easy this song really is. The song uses two
guitars, Rhythm Guitar and Lead Guitar.
I've tried to synchronize the Lead with the Rhythm in the choruses, but it
might look a little strange, since there are Lead Guitar notes 10 fretted or
higher which messes up the tab.
Like jesuschic said, a lot is "mostly sound effects and d.j. noise" apart from
the chorus, but if you listen carefully you can hear some soft guitar in the
background at some places. So I'm tabbing everything.
/ = Slide up, slide between chords or slide into
\ = Slide down, slide between chords or slide out from
P.M. or ... = Palm Muting
x = Scratching, Heavy muting by fret hand.
No guitar in intro
Riff in the beginning of verse: Lead Guitar (Acoustic or clean electric)
G ------------------- D ------------------- A --/9-7-6-7-6------- (The slide down is very soft and is optional) E -------------7-9\--
Then at the Lead Guitar's final note, the Rhythm Guitar comes in.

P.M. .... .... .... .... .... .... .... ....
It's the bass guitar that does the cool slide thing before second chorus, not
any guitar.
Chorus
Cool bass guitar for a while, then Rhythm Guitar joins in

There you go! Listen to the lyrics to this song, they are very good. Please
tell me if you find any mistakes, even if it's the smallest thing. So... Here
is where I usually say "TFK ROCKS!!!", but I guess this time I'll have to say
SUPERCHIC(K) ROCKS TOO!!!
God Bless,
Daniel
