How To Disappear Completely And Never Be Found

capo on 2nd fret

This song feels very unusual to play, in terms of time. In essence,
though, the song is in 3/4 (waltz) time, with 8 bar phrases. Thom's
(?) guitar part has a strumming pattern which makes the time feel a
little funny, and the bass/keyboard figure repeats a dotted quarter
note pattern, which further clouds the original feel. This is all a
very technical way of saying listen to the song until you can hear
how the guitar part is supposed to be played.

Here is the 8-bar strumming pattern, which repeats (d=downstrum u=upstrum)
d d d | d d d | du u u | d du du | d du du | d du du | du u u | d du du |

Chords are held for 2 bars a piece.

Intro:
C Cadd9 C Cadd9 Emin Emin(add b6) Emin Emin(add b6)
(repeat)

Chord progression and strumming repeat for verse.

Chorus:
G G(add11) G G(add11) Emin Emin(addb6) Emin Emin(addb6)
(repeat)


only other part is at end:
D
ahhhhhh
Emin Emin(add b6)
ahhhhhh
(repeat)



C Cadd9 Emin Emin(addb6) G G(add11) D
----0------0----------0-----------0-------------3--------3---------2--

----------------------0-----------0-------------3--------3------------

Bassline/keyboard (transcribed for guitar - no capo):
Pattern starts on BAR 7 of 8 bar chord pattern, and repeats:
--------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------

for chorus, line is less distinct. Focus on these 2 notes

strum the following 2x, then the second half 1x:

then to:

------------7---7---7---5-------------9---9---9---7---
------------------------------------------------------
------------5---5---5---3-------------7---7---7---5---
--0---0-----------------------0---0-------------------

continue above riff during verse. Sounds like another
guitar enters playing this:
-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
------------7---7---7---5---------------9---9---9---7--
------------3---3---3---2---------------5---5---5---4--
-------------------------------------------------------

(then immediately to verse riff)

Gtr 2 strums these chords for above part:

-------------------------------2----
----5--------3--------3--------3----
----5--------4--------3--------2----

then palm-mute and repeat the following (approximate):
---------------------------------------
---------------------------------------
-------------------0--------0----------
-------------------0--------0----------
---------------------------------------
---0----0----0--------0--------0----0--

enter guitar 2:

-0-0--------------0-0--------------0-0--------------0-0---------------

that's it. You may have to piece some of the parts together, but
this should give you all you need to play the tune.

IN LIMBO
for guitar - 4/4, 2/4 time signature
transcribed from live the version in Arles, France - 13/06/00

I have tabbed out each riff and named them INTRO RIFF, VERSE RIFF and CHORUS
RIFF. To add a bit of structure, not that it's distinguishable (again), at
the end I have put a structure layout.

I think there are three guitars throughout. I don't know who plays the little
intro riff, probably thom, but when everyone comes in, Ed probably (maybe
Jonny) plays the main repeated riff. Jonny plays little delayed riffs here
and there.

KEY:
H - hammer on
P - pull off
x - muted scratch


INTRO RIFF - 4/4, 2/4:

Here is the little riff before it kicks in. It might
have a short delay on, that's why it was so damn hard
to tab..!

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 +
e -------------------------------------------------
B --1-3-3-3-----1-3-3---3---3-3-3-3-5-3-1-3---3-3--
G ---H-----------H-------------------P---H---------
D -------------------------------------------------
A -------------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------------

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 +
e ---------------------------------------------------
B --1-3-3-3-3-3-1-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-1-3-3-3---3-1-3--
G ---H-----------H-------------------H-----------H---
D ---------------------------------------------------
A ---------------------------------------------------
E ---------------------------------------------------

Then it all kicks in but this guitar still continues
quietly throughout the verses, varying a little.


VERSE RIFF - 4/4, 2/4:

This is the main riff, playing triplets:

1 2 3 4 1 2
e --------------------------------------------------------
B --------------------------------------------------------
G --------0-----------------------------------------------
D -----3-----------0--------0-----------------0--------0--
A --5-----------3--------2--------2--------2--------3-----
E -----------5--------0--------------0--3--------1--------

Jonny does delayed scratching a lot and sometimes plays
little delayed licks on the 4th beat:

4 + 4 +
e ------- e -------
B ------- B --2-4-- - (discordant)
G --2-0-- G ---H---
D ---P--- D -------
A ------- A -------
E ------- E -------


CHORUS RIFF - 4/4:

Still playing triplets:

1 2 3 4 1 2 (3) (4)
e --------------------------------------------------
B --------------------------------------------------
G --------0--------0--------0--------0--------------
D -----1--------0--------5--------2-----2-----------
A --3--------1--------6--------3-----------3--2-----
E --------------------------------------------0--0--

Jonny does more delayed licks on the final 4th beat
of the above riff:

CHORUS ONE:
4 4 4 4
e --0-- e --3-- e --3-- e --x--
B --0-- B ----- B ----- B --x--
G --0-- G ----- G ----- G --x--
D ----- D ----- D ----- D --x--
A ----- A ----- A ----- A --x--
E ----- E ----- E ----- E --x--

CHORUS TWO:
4 4 4 4
e --3-- e ----- e ----- e --x--
B ----- B --3-- B --3-- B --x--
G ----- G ----- G ----- G --x--
D ----- D ----- D ----- D --x--
A ----- A ----- A ----- A --x--
E ----- E ----- E ----- E --x--

CHORUS THREE:
4 4 4
e --3-- e --3-- e -----
B --0-- B ----- B --4-- - rpt. this to end
G ----- G ----- G -----
D ----- D ----- D -----
A ----- A ----- A -----
E ----- E ----- E -----


SONG STRUCTURE:

INTRO 4/4, 2/4 - play INTRO RIFF, then VERSE RIFF x4
VERSE 4/4, 2/4 - play VERSE RIFF x7
CHORUS 4/4 - play CHORUS RIFF x4
OUTRO 4/4, 2/4 - play VERSE RIFF x2
VERSE 4/4, 2/4 - play VERSE RIFF x8
CHORUS 4/4 - play CHORUS RIFF x4
OUTRO 4/4, 2/4 - play VERSE RIFF x2
VERSE 4/4, 2/4 - play VERSE RIFF x6
CHORUS 4/4 - play CHORUS RIFF to end

I have used INTRO, VERSE, BRIDGE, MIDDLE 8 and END

Am - A C E
Amaj7 - A C# E G#
G - G B D

INTRO:
Drums - 4 bars

Am Amaj7 Am Amaj7
Am Amaj7
G D G D


VERSE:

rpt. VERSE TWICE


BRIDGE (whammy and scratching guitars enter)
