 MIDNIGHT FLIGHT - Yeti

 Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
 
 This is my first attempt at transcribing a song, I am pretty sure some of the notes are
 but I think it comes close enough. I chose this song, because it is a really cool song
 back when I was a beginner, I got really mad because I could not find a decent tab to this one.
 You will have to figure out the timings yourselves, I should actually be practicing for
 concert, instead of transcribing this ;-)
 (And sorry for the long descriptions, I think this is an easy song to play, even for a
 so I tried to explain everything to make it as easy as possible)
 
 You need a band or a Boss RC-50 Loop Station for this song to be really fun to play...
 
 The bassline (I play it on guitar) is:

 e|-----------------------------|
 B|-----------------------------|
 G|-----------------------------|
 D|-----------------------------|
 A|------------2--0-------------|
 E|---0--3--2--------3----------|(Repeat 4 times, then go on with:)
 e|-------------------|
 B|-------------------|
 G|-------------------|
 D|-------------------|
 A|-------------------|
 E|--0--3--2--0--3----|(And then go back to bass riff one throughout most of the song, it 
 

 a bit sometimes, but you should be able to figure that out yourselves, it sounds just
 cool without the variations)
 
 During the first verse, there are some sounds that sound like a synthesizer or
 I use harmonics (I think it comes close enough to the sound) on the 5th fret of the 1st string
 sth like:
 + + + + + + + + 
         

 e|-5-5-------------5-5-----------5-5-----------------5-5-------------------|
 

 
 And then (without harmonics, also on the 1st string):
 
 e|-12-12\---|
 
 (Slide down to the top of the neck and numb the sound by releasing, but still touching
 string)
 After the slide from the 12th fret comes a chuck (numb all strings by touching and hit
 once)
 
 The first solo:

 e|----------------------------------------------------|
 B|----------------------------------------------------|
 G|----------------------------------------------------|
 D|-----------5--0--0h2-------------5--6p5--0--2--0h2--|
 A|--2--5--2-------------2--5--0h2---------------------|
 E|----------------------------------------------------|
 

 
 The first time the solo is played, it ends with this:

 e|-----------------------|
 B|-----------------------|
 G|--2/b9--b9--b9--9\-----|
 D|-----------------------|
 A|-----------------------|
 E|-----------------------|once again slide down all the way...
 

 
 The second time (played over the verse) it ends with something like:

 e|--------------|
 B|--------------|
 G|--/7--b9--7---|
 D|--------------|
 A|--------------|
 E|--------------|
 

 
 Sometime near the end, they start strumming the chords E, G, F#, and B over the bass
 I use this strumming pattern:
 
 E       G       F#      B      
 / / / * / / / * / / / * / / / *
 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 2 &
 
 (I put '/' for the beats you hit the strings on and I put '*' for a chuck (numbing the
 and hitting them, I think it gives it a good percussion)
 
 I did not have time to figure out the long solo at the end yet, but when I have it
 out, I will add it, and maybe post this tab with the final solo as a guitar pro file.
 If you are using a loop station, try an egg shaker for percussion, it goes really well
 the guitar.
 Have fun!
