STORMCHASER - Light This City
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: wheretheressmoke (Spyke72)
Email: kyclarke@gmail.com
Tuning: Drop C (D A F C G C)
First song off Light This City's posthumous record, Stormchaser. It destroys.
This is my first tab, but it sounds pretty good to me. If anyone wants to make
corrections, additions, tab the solo,
or indeed tab any other LTC song, you'd be a cool frood who really knows where their towel is.
Intro: Thunder rumbles, this is played without distortion (sometimes in a different order)
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
F|---7~----------------8~-----------5~---------------------------------------|
C|--7~----------------8~-----------5~----------------------------------------|
G|-5~----------------6~-----------3~-----------------------------------------|
C|0~----------------0~-----------0~------------------------------------------|
Now the same chords, but with distortion:
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|----7777~------8888~----7--7-----7777~------10101010~-----10----10---------|
|----7777~------8888~---5--5------7777~------10101010~---10----10-----------|

Repeat Fill A, verse riff pt. 2, and then after fill B bust out this sexy number:
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|10101010---10101010---10101010---101212121212------------------------------|
|8-8-8-8----8-8-8-8----8-8-8-8----8-1010101010-8888~--8888~--8777---7888----|
|8-8-8-8----8-8-8-8----8-8-8-8----8-1010101010-0000---0000---0000---0000----|
* * *
(If someone can figure out the solo(s), they'd be super awesome)
Figure out how fast to strum the chords like a big boy/girl:
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------17---------------------------------------------------------|
|14-15-14-15-14---15-14----10-12-10-14h15p14------------14-15~-------------|
|12-12-12-12-12--------15~-8--8--8----------15-12~-12-15-------------------|
|12-12-12-12-12------------8--8--8-----------------------------------------|
(Perhaps those fills will give someone a start on the solo? hint hint)
Fill C:
|--------------------|
|8-----10-----11~----|
|10b12-12b14-13b15~--|
|--------------------|
|--------------------|
|--------------------|
Outro riff:
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|--10----12----14h15p14---------14h15---------------------------------------|
|-8----12----12--------15-12--12--------------------------------------------|
|8---10----12---------------15----------------------------------------------|
*** * * * * *
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------12h14--------------------------------------|
|--10----12----14h15p14--12-14-15-------------------------------------------|
|-8----12----12--------15---------------------------------------------------|
|8---10----12---------------------------------------------------------------|
*** * * * * *
Then guitar 2 comes in harmonizing the fills like this:
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|--10----12----10h12p10-------10h12-----------------------------------------|
|-8----12----12--------12-8--8----------------------------------------------|
|8---10----12--------------12-----------------------------------------------|
*** * * * * *
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------9h10----------------------------------------|
|--10----12----10h12p10--8-10-12--------------------------------------------|
|-8----12----12--------12---------------------------------------------------|
|8---10----12---------------------------------------------------------------|
*** * * * * *
At the end of the song, just play the last note twice and hold it real pretty like.
That's about it, tell me what you think of my first tab.
I've got Anhedonia Epidemic too, I'll put it up when I have some spare time.
