Band: Type O Negative
Album: Life Is Killing Me
Song: The Dream Is Dead
Tuning: BEADF#B
Notes
+ Odd Numbered Verses = The A# chord is actually an open harmonic produced by the
sustainer pickup. I think the harmonic on the 4th fret gets you close.
+ The last chord played at the end of each verse and in a few other spots is played with
a wah pedal.
+ Verse 2 notes are played with a sustainer pickup and light wah. I played the notes
with an eBow.
+ * means Palm Mute
