-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Tongue-Splitter - Protest the Hero-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Tabbed by: FacetOfChaosEmail: abcnumber4@yahoo.comTuning: Half-Step DownREAD THIS INFORMATION PLEASE~Pay attention to the time markers for each section. Should help you to learn the songand decipher it from text much more easily.-x2 = play the line twice.-x2S = play the entire section twice.-Sometimes I will bracket off a part and add an x2 or other multiple behind it. Thatmeans to play the bracketed part however many times specified.-Also there are first and second endings used in this tab. They're a fairlystraightforward concept. Play ending 1 the first time, and ending 2 on the repeat. Theendings are marked with either (1. 2. etc) or (ending 1. etc)-If any of the above is confusing, listening to the section of the song while looking atthe tab should clear up any problems. Protest songs are quite complex and I'll do mybest to keep the tab as clear as possible.0:00 - 0:19- t t (t) t t t t tD#|--------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|----------12-0----------10---------------------12-0----------10/13~-| F#|--------9---------9-8-9----9-8-9-------------9---------9-8-9--------| C#|-10-7-9--------10----------------10-9-10-7-9--------10--------------| G#|--------------------------------------------------------------------| D#|--------------------------------------------------------------------|x2 D#|---------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------| F#|-----9-9-9-----10-----8-8-9-------------10-----8---| C#|-----8-8-8-----9------7-7-8-------------9------7---| G#|-x-x-7-7-7-x-x-8--x-x-6-6-7-x-x-x-x-x-x-8--x-x-6---| D#|-x-x-7-7-7-x-x-8--x-x-6-6-7-x-x-x-x-x-x-8--x-x-6---|x2S0:19 -
