Chevelle - The Red
1/2 step down drop d

intro (verse is the same, just palm muted):

d------------7--7--9--7--5--5--5--5--5--7--7--9--7--3--3--3--3--3
a------------5--5--7--5--3--3--0--3--0--5--5--7--5--1--1--0--1--0
d------------0--0--0--0--3--3--3--3--3--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0

repeat as necessary

chorus (play the shown chords until the change):

so lay      down  the threat is real
       d------------------------5
       a-----0--3---------------3
       d-----0--3----------------

solo (play each note for a few counts:

d (4th)-----7-----0

the solo sounds as if it has a slight vibrato applied to it…could just be the way its picked, either way it’ll sound fine with some heavy dist.


its really very simple, you should be able to figure it out.  and I know this is right, so go to hell if you think otherwise.


theres one little part later on in the song after the bridge that goes:

d-----3--3--3--3--3--3--2--2--2--2--2--2
a-----1--1--1--1--1--1--0--0--0--0--0--0

have fun...
