Tuning: Down a step and drop D (CGCFAD)

Start with clean guitar w/Delay set for short interval, but reasonably powerful.
First riff should be toned out with your on-guitar control, then bring in the

sound for the last repetition, and leave it full for remainder of song.

Distort w/ no delay.
What i suggest is to palm mute the first four hits, then let the fifth ring.
Just leave your finger palm muting the notes on the fret its about the let ring.

"How high" (8X)

C|---(3-3-3-3)-3--(5-5-5-5)-5-(6-6-6-6)-6--(5-5-5-5)-5-----------------------|

Then this riff. Then go back and do it again.

This part is played on some sort of acoustic guitar,
And i cant figure it out, might be based around what ive got,
but its definately not 100%.
"How high can you go?"

D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------3-3---3-3---3----3-3---3-3---5---------------------------------------|

Distort that guitar again, the timing is cool so listen carefully to the track.

C|----5h6-0---------5h6-0---------5h6-0--------5h6-0--5h6-0-------5h6-0------|

(Chorus)

This is the outro. Again im not sure about it.
Keep the distortion up, even drop the delay back in if you fancy.


"Silent Soul,
It sold my soul.
Silence" (4X)
