Song: How Can Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel?

Tabbed by: Trifonas

Tuning:Standard EADGBe (Low to High)

Here we go! This tune has two distorted guitars.
I will tab them both but they are almost the same

(the second is one octave lower with more distortion than the first one
and at some points the second doesn't play a thing,
you'll see what I mean).

Outro (Almost the same as verses and choruses,
but with the chromatic riff and the synth music box,
which is very fun to play)
Guitar 1 (Basic Riff)
e|----3---3---3---3----0-5p3----------|
B|---3-3-3-3-3-3-4-4--2---------------|
G|--0---2---3---3----2------7-6-5-3---|
D|--------------------------7-6-5-3---|
A|--------------------------5-4-3-1---|
E|------------------------------------|

Guitar 2 (Basic Riff)
e|---------------------------5p3----------------|
B|--------------------------2-------------------|
G|-------------------3-----2--------------------|
D|----5----5----5---5-5---2-----7/12-11-10-8----|
A|---5----5----5-5-6-----0----------------------|
E|--3--3-5--5-6-----------------5/10-9-8-6------|

Synth Music Box (I can't really make out what's being played,
but this is something close)
e|-----15-13--------------------|
B|----------15--15-14-13-12-----|
G|--12--------------------------|
D|------------------------------|
A|------------------------------|
E|------------------------------|

That's it! It took me a while (these Alain Whyte riffs are hard, but fun to master).
The verses are the same with the choruses and that's why I didn't tab them.
If you want to play it with just one guitar I suggest using Guitar 2 for the verses and
choruses and
Guitar 1 for the Bridge and Pre Choruses. Have fun playing this amazing song!
