MEAN SPIRITS - Silversun Pickups
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Matt Jennings

Tuning: Drop C#

eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Db|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Ab|-----5---3--5-------3--5---5-3-0-------------------------------------------|
C#|-0-0---0------3-0--------0-------3-0---------------------------------------|

2nd time playing it on the intro:

eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Ab|-----5---3--5-------3--5---5-3-0-------------------------------------------|
C#|-0-0---0------3-0--------0-------3-2-0-------------------------------------|

You'll want to refrain from letting the C# (6th string) ring out when playing on the 5th string

Repeat the riff for the verse, then it switches to:

eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|-3-3-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|-3-3-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Ab|-1-1-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Repeat those chords for however long it is.


Chorus:

eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|-3-3-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|-3-3-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
Ab|-1-1-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Same as verse

eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|-0-3---3-0-5---5-5-5---0-0-0---0-0-----------------------------------------|
Ab|-0-3---3-0-5---5-5-5---0-0-0---0-0-----------------------------------------|
C#|-0-3---3-0-5---5-5-5---0-0-0---0-0-----------------------------------------|

You'll have to listen to get the rythm for it.


I was just gonna tab the intro, but I thought I may as well throw in the chorus tabs.
There's some other things I haven't bothered trying to tab yet but I'm sure if you're able
to play this then you can learn the rest by ear.
