Song: Familiar Taste of Poison
Artist: Halestorm
Tuning: Standard
Tab by: Dan DeVita
Key:
* = Harmonic (for this song, the harmonics represented are all bridge
harmonics)
. = Palm Mute
Live, Halestorm does this song with just one guitar, but for
the sake of completeness I've tabbed out the few sections in the
song where there are two guitar parts simultaneously.
[Intro/Verse] - 9x

Guitar 2 (on the 2nd, 4th, and 7th times of Guitar 1's riff)
I'm pretty sure that Joes uses a guitar with a whammy bar to get the vibrato
on the last harmonic. If you don't have one, you can achieve a similar effect
by bending your guitar's neck.

Strum the last chord very easily, hitting each note in turn
during your downstroke. Joe uses his whammy bar on that last chord
as well.
And that's a wrap!
