Tuning: Half Step Down
"Not For Me" is the 9th track off Slash's latest album, Apocalyptic Love. This song, to
me, has a bit of an Alter Bridge vibe, and reminds me of the song 'Burn It Down' off
Alter Bridge's first album.
This is only my second tab.
So the song starts off with distortion, and the intro goes something like this:
Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|--7--7b8r7--6-----6--10--5--5b6r5--4-----4--8--3--3b4r3-2---2--6--|
Db|--7------------7--7--7---5------------5--5--5--3----------3-3--3--|
Ab|--5----------------------3---------------------1------------------|
Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------|
At the end of that bar, the second guitarist plays this with a clean tone:
Eb|-----------|
Bb|-----------|
Gb|--------7--|
Db|--3--5--4--|
Ab|--3--5--5--|
Eb|--1--3--5--|
After that, the second guitarist plays the main riff four times:

Verse 0:24
x4
Eb|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|-----------------1--------1-----1----------------------------------------|
Gb|--7------7-7-----2--------2-----0----------------------------------------|
Db|--4--4-4-5-4-----3--3-3-3-3-3-3-2---2-2-3-2-0-2-1--1-----3--3------------|
Ab|--5--5-5-5-5-0-0-3--3-3-3---3-3-3---3-3-3-3-3-3-1--1-0-0-1--1-1-1-1-0----|
Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------------3--|
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
At the end of the fourth time, the second guitarist strums this:
Eb|-----|
Bb|-----|
Gb|-7---|
Db|-4---|
Ab|-5---|
Eb|-----|
At the same time, the first guitarist begins to play the chorus, which goes like this:
Chorus 1:01
x2
Eb|-2--2-2-3-2-0-0----------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|-3--3-3-3-3-0-0-1------------1-------------------------------------------|
Gb|-2--2-2-2-2-0-0-2---2-0------0------------------------0--------3---------|
Db|----------------3-------3----0h2---3-2---0h2-----1--1--1--3--3--3--------|
Ab|----------------3--3-----3-3-3----3----3-----3-3-1--1-----1--1----1-0----|
Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------------3--|
"This is not for me..." . .
At the part where Myles Kennedy says "Anymore" (around 1:27), the chorus riff is
replayed, but with distortion and more palm muted and silent notes, but it isn't as difficult
to figure out by ear as it is to tab it, so I'll leave that part out.
The bridge will be tabbed out later
