Speak in Tongues Guitar Tablature
For the record, Fingertight is an amazing band. They have one of the best stage shows I've ever seen by a band, cuz they go friggin' nuts on stage. You guys really need to check out this CD and the band live in concert. This is Track 5 off the CD, and the first song in their concert set.


TUNING: Drop D (D A D G B E low to high)
*Note* You can play this in standard tuning as well, as long as you play the 5th root part of the chorus instead of the low root. I know Serj plays this song in Drop D because I saw it live and it looked and sounded amazing.

TIME SIG.: 4/4

*NOTE* 7^ means a harmonic on the 7th fret.

ORDER:
Intro (8x)
Verse (4x)
Chorus (4x)
Verse (4x) *Note* this is minus the first half of the verse on the first time
Chorus (4x)
Bridge (6x)
Chorus (10x) + the last half of the chorus before the first time
End

That's pretty much it. It's a fun song to play along with, because it's really easy and it has a great beat to it. Any questions or concerns, put them in the "Comments" section, and I'll try to address 'em.

Thanks
