No Way Out - Bullet For My Valentine
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Ian

Song: No Way Out
Album: Venom
Band: Bullet For My Valentine


Tuning: Drop C (CGCFAD)

Not sure if this 100% correct, but it should be close and give you an idea of how to play the song.
In some of the chugs the rhythms are not 100% right as this is a general idea and you should be able
find the right rhythm just by listening to the song.
If you do find any mistakes please let me know and I will fix the tab. This is my first tab so constructive
criticism is appreciated!
This song isn't too hard for experienced players familiar with hard rock and metal music but may be
a little tricky for people starting out or players that are not used to the genre.
Enjoy!

No Way Out - Bullet For My Valentine - Venom

Tabbed by: randomdemon11

Tuning: Drop C
Pace: 140bpm

Hi, guys! I am a big fan of BFMV and am absolutely loving their new album. I came here to learn one of
my favourite songs from this album, but to my dismay, the solo wasn't included in the tabs. (aside from
the Guitar Pro versions). In addition, not all of the guitar parts were tabbed out - often only one of the
guitars were shown. So, I learned everything by ear and slowed down the solo to get the melody right note for
note. I have also included the harmonies and the neglected backing guitar parts.

The timings shown are for the Spotify version of No Way Out from the full album, Venom, though I'm sure they'll
be accurate enough for other versions and the YouTube official lyrics video. For help with timing, the quavers
of each bar are represented by the "1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &". Side note: some of the sections have had the spacing
between the "1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &" modified to accommodate for those pesky double digit frets (and the solo)
and keep everything in line. Rhythm is important. For further guidance, I've also added lyrics alongside
some of the sections, so you don't lose track of where you are.

I've put the guitar parts next to each other in their relative sections rather than tabbing all of
guitar 1 and then all of guitar 2 so it'll be easier to see what's going on when. Sometimes, there's an
additional guitar(Guitar 3) for when harmonies are introduced. This is a recorded guitar and has been laid on
top of Matt and Padge's guitars.

Enjoy the tab!

This is the rough way to play it, all I do is basically play this. Just alternate pick them.


Intro/ Chorus
The basic chord progression goes as so for the chorus :) It's pretty easy just take a
listen and you'll get it nice and easily.
There's some muting in too, just play along however you feel most comfortable.

|----------|
|----------|
|----------|
|7/9-x5/9-7|
|5/7-x3/7-5|
|----------|

You play this four times and the last D5, well C5 as its in D standard tuning, you let
chord ring for a bar or two.


Mini random fill :)

PM . . .

A lovely little fill to keep the song close-ish to the original Robert Tepper version,
for those who don't know who he is, the song off of Rocky IV where he drives his Lambo :P


Verse
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
|-------77-777-55-555-55-555-5-5-5|
|22-222-55-555-33-333-22-222-2-2-2|
|00-000---------------------------|
PM. . .

Pre-chorus
|------------------------|
|------------------------|
|------------------------|
|9~~~~7~~~~5~~~~5~~~~----|
|7~~~~5~~~~3~~~~2~~~~----|
|--------------------####|

If you want to, play yourself some triplets when moving down to the next chords, and
some fun with the pick-slide too, if you want to do a pinch harmonic on the open G and pull
with the whammy bar, sounds cool, of course only if you've got a two way bridge :P


Just play the chorus here, its the same as the intro if you didn't notice.

Right just play the verse here, and then obviously the pre-chorus :)

Again comes the chorus, however the chorus plays again, with the inclusion of the solo,
mess around normally, and this the closest I
managed to get to it :)

|---------------------------------15^-15^-15^-15^----15^-12-19^p17p15h17^|
|---------------------5-5/8-10^-8----------------------------------------|
|---------------7-5-4----------------------------------------------------|
|2--2-4-5-7-5-4-----------------------------------14---------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------|

The bit with the pull offs is really just me messing around, it sounds cool if you get
timing right. Although if you want, just mess around in D minor or the pentatonic of D :)


Little fill straight after the solo
|---------|
|---------|
|---------|
|---------|
|222-2~~~~|
|000-0~~~~|


The bit that comes after all this is just those harmonics I tabbed at the top of the
:)
There's an FX guitar doing a few small arpeggios over this, except I couldn't quite
them. Ear's not so refined.

Just do the pre-chorus afterwards.

Obviously comes the chorus again, although I'm sure you need not read this cause you'll
:)

Just play it all the way till the fade out.

For the little solo till the fade out all I play is:

|------15----12---------15^~15p14h15|
|--------------15-------------------|
|12-14----14------12-14-------------| I know this isn't 100% but I'm sure
|-----------------------------------| it's pretty close.
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|

Anyway, enjoy the song, its a fun one to play as I'm sure you know :)
Please comment to correct any bits that are wrong and I'll edit them in :) Cheers :)
