Using your whammy bar, pick notes and vibrate them gently, but very quickly. You've
be light on the whammy bar otherwise it'll just sound out of tune.

For those of you who are interested in it, here is the trumpet part from the above two,
obviously it's hard to recreate the sound of a trumpet's valves on guitar, so it doesn't sound
exactly right. I'm pretty sure there's a harmony in there somewhere, but these are the
notes played.

Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)
Here's my version of the tab for Knights Of Cydonia by Muse.
It's basically my interpretation of Mr. Bellamy's live performance
of this song, and its got all the extra little things that he does
that are not on the album version. Have fun playing this, as it sounds great!


[Intro]
------
Begin with this.
(Clean or distorted, your choice).
e|-0----0----0--------------|
B|-0----1----1--------------|
G|-0----0----0--------------|
D|-2----2----2--------------|
A|-2----2----2--------------|
E|-0----0----0--------------|

Then into the proper intro.
(Clean-ish).
e|-------------------------|
B|-------------------------|
G|-------------------------|
D|-2----4--5----7--7--9----| x2
A|-2----4--5----7--7--9----|
E|-0----2--3----5--5--7----|

Tremolo picking.
(Distortion).
e|--------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------|
A|-7--9--10----12--10--9--7--6----|
E|--------------------------------|

e|----------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------|
A|-7---6-7-9---7-9-10---9-10-12--10--9--7--6----|
E|----------------------------------------------|

e|-------------------|
B|-------------------|
G|-------------------|
D|-----------------2-|
A|-----------------2-|
E|-19/-------------0-|

For this next part, play the note once and bend
back and forth quickly with the vibrato bar.
e|------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------|
D|-5----4--2--0----2--4--5----4--2--0-|
A|------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------|

e|------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------|
D|-1----2--4--2----5--7--8----7--8--9-|
A|------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------|

e|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-8----5--0--7----8----7--5--3----7----5--3--5----3--1--3----4----5-|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|

Now it's just straightforward tremolo picking for the next part.
e|-11----10--8--6----8--10--11----10--8--6----7----8--10--8----11--13--14----13--14--15-|

e-7---7-------8---7----7----8----7----7----7-| Play the last chord a few

G---9---8---9-----7----8----9----7----8----9-| for intro section again.

E|----------------------------------------------|

e|-20/---------------0---| When Matt plays live he does the
B|-------------------0---| slide down on the low e, not the
G|-------------------0---| high e, but i prefer using the high e.
D|-----------------2-2---| Also, Play the last chord a few
A|-----------------2-2---| times then palm mute a few times
E|-----------------0-0---| and then stop all noise (for now).

Start this after "...must fight to survive."

That's it. Enjoy!

Played with a heavy distortion or a fuzz effect, make sure every note is well defined,
the tremolo arm is rocked back and forth vigorously to achieve the correct sound, if you
have
tremolo system on your guitar then tremolo picking is a good substitute.

Knights Of Cydonia Live At Rome Olympic Stadium - Muse
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Rory H
E-mail: rdeh10@googlemail.com

Tuning: EADGBe

So this is a tab for the Live Version of Knights of Cydonia that was played at Rome Olympic Stadium.
I have created this tab mainly because the other live versions seem only to cover the Wembley performance
or the Abbey Road session, which are both great, but do have their differences to the Rome version :)

Any improvements/corrections, let me know in the comments or by email!
