Artist: The Story So Far
Title: Clairvoyant
Album: Single
Tabbed by: angelic_sedition
This is my first attempt transcribing a song, so any advice or suggested alterations
would be appreciated. I think it's fairly accurate, though some parts were pretty hard to
hear no thanks to the poor quality audio I had to listen to (particularly the outro).
Hopefully you'll get the basic idea though.
Tuning: C# G# D# G# C D#
(Thanks to TheBrendanHolmes of yt for the tuning; I originally had it tuned Db A# F C G#
C with 7th string barred for the verse.. put it in in this tuning and I think it's much
better.. not sure what the actual tuning is.. Might be better to tune the last two
strings higher if you can without them breaking)
It's a pretty simple song. Basically just a verse, chorus, and outro with a few variations:

[Verse 2]
Play verse again
[Chorus]
Play chorus again
[Outro] after harmonics
Slow down towards end.. yes I know.. you should probably tune the top string higher if
you can so that you can actually play it. The harmonics sound perfect with this tuning though.

Sounds brighter if you play more open strings at the end. Cheers.
