Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)

The Metal - Tenacious D
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by: LeFlo
Tuning: Standard EADGBe / Drop D DADGBe

Check out my video for more explicit timing:

_________________________


For this song, you have two possibilities: either you play it in Drop D entirely (but
you're going to have some
problems with the clean part), or you play the first part in standard E and quickly
switch to Drop D (something
which you may have to practice) when the vocals leave definitively. I'll tab this with
the 2nd option.

As for the sound, I personally tune my guitar to C tuning and get it back in E with a
capo on 4th fret. This is
to achieve that typical flappy metal sound thanks to looser strings, which fits pretty
well to the song.

Part I: Main riff

A|-2---2-2-----2h3p2p0h2p0h2h3p2p0-|-3---3----------------------|
E|-0---0-0-3p0-0-------------------|-1--------------------------|

Play this riff once for the intro and 4 times for the first verse.

###
If those fast triplets are hard to you (like they are to me, hah!),
you can continue the picking pattern on the E chord like this:
e|-----------------0---------------|----------------------------<12>---|
B|-1----1--3----3-------0--0----0--|-1----1--3----3--0----0--0---------------|

A|-0---0---2---2-------2---2---2---|-0---0---2---2-------2---2---------------|
E|-----------------0---------------|-----------------0-----------------------|
###

Part IV:
Same as Part I (repeat main riff 5 times)

Part V:
This is where you switch to Drop D.
