MAD SEASON - Tablatura - River Of Deceit

Okay, I've seen both versions at OLGA, now here's the real one. I got
it directly off the live video tape of Mad Season playing at the Moore
in Seattle. Here we go...

There are only two basic chords in the whole song-

E A D G B e
F: 0 3 3 2 1 1(somtimes open)
G: 3 2 0 0 3 3

Not too difficult, you just have to figure out the strumming...

Intro:

--------------------------------------------------------
--3---3h5p3--3--0-----------------------------0----0----
--0----------------4p2p0---2---2s4s2p0---2----0----0---- Repeat 3x
----------------------------------------------0h2--2----
--------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------

This is basically the same as the first tab at OLGA, so you can use that
one if this one confuses you...

Now this(whatever you call it):
F G
--1---------3---3------
--2---2-----3---3------
--3-----2---0---0------ Strum freely, listen to the song.
--3---------0---0------
------------2---2------
------------3---3------

Now this is played throughout the entire song:
F G ?
---------3---2--;--3-------------------
--1------3---3--;--3--3h5p3-3----------
--2p0----0---0--;--0-----------4s2p0--- This fill is only played in the
--3------0---0--;--0------------------- second verse, and not all the
----------------;--3------------------- time.
----------------;--2-------------------

Just listen to the song for the strumming.

Verse:This is where I've seen the majority of the screw ups, here's how
McCready plays it on the video tape.

--3------5------8--8--8p7--7--8p7--7--8-------------
--3------5------8--8--8----8--8----8--8-------------
--0------0------0--0--0----0--0----0--0-------------
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------

The rhythm might be hard to follow, but you can pick that up also.

Now just play the intro once for the outro and that's it! I hope I did
a good job, this is my first tab and I've only been playing two months,
so I would love some criticism and/or comments. Hey if anybody has
figured out "Lifeless Dead" by Mad Season, e-mail me at
solo, so I would appreciate some other attempts. Later!

I think this is more accurate than the current version at OLGA
River of Deceit
by Mad Season

Notes:
This song only contains two chords Fadd9 and
G major, the same progression used in HendrixUs
I donUt live today. I sugest that for the Fadd9 chord
you cover the high E and B strings with your first finger,
the G string with your second finger,
the D string with your pinky, the A
string with you ring finger and the low E with your thumb.

h=hammer on
p=pull off
s=slide

Group: Mad Season
Song: River of Deceit

This is one of the better songs of the Above album. It isn't any easy
song to figure out. I did my best so that is all i could do. A lot of the
music in this song is just going into little scales of the chords being
played. Anyway here is my best try at it:

notations:
**********
s=slide
h=hammer on
p=pull off
v=vibrato

guitar parts:
-------------
this part is played in the begining

E |------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B |--8-----8------------------------------------------8----8---------------|
G |--7-----7h9h7--------------------------------------7----7h9p7-----------|
D |--------------9p7----------------------------------------------9p7------|
A |-------------------10--7--10--7--10-----5h7-5v----------------------10--|
E |------------------------------------------------------------------------|

E |-----------------------------------------------------------------|
B |----------------------------8----8-------------------------------|
G |----------------------------7----7h9p7---------------------------|
D |---------------------------------------9p7-----------------------|
A |--7-10s12--7--10---5h7-5v-------------------10--7--10s12--7--10--|
E |-----------------------------------------------------------------|

E |-----------------------3-----3---3-----3--|
B |-----------------------3-----3---3-----3--| then go
G |-----------------------0--x--0---0--x--0--| to the
D |--7--------------------0--x--0---0--x--0--| verse part
A |--------10s12---5------2--x--2---2--x--2--|
E |-----------------------3--x--3---3--x--3--|

verse:
------
this part i'm sure is a C to G progression, but i'm not sure how he
hammers on and pulls off notes, this is close enought though
E |--0----0--0--0--3--3-x--3--3--3--3--|
B |--3p1--1--0--1--1--3-x--3--3--3--3--|
G |--0----0--0--0--0--0-x--0--0--0--0--|
D |--2----2--2--2--2--0-x--0--0--0--0--|
A |--3----3--3--3-----2-x--2--2--2--2--|
E |-------------------3-x--3--3--3--3--|
that is basically the verse, he does some other improvisational stuff
which is just going into scales (i believe the G-scale) and goes a bit
crazy

chorus:
-------
this is the best i could come up with..........
when you get to the D-chord in this progression, work with the hammering
on and pulling off to get the real effect of the song.
E |--3---3-3---3-3p2--2--2--2-3p2--2-2-2--|
B |--3---3-3---3-3----3--3--3-3----3-3-3--|
G |--0-x-0-2---2-2----2--2--2-2----2-2-2--|
D |--0-x-2-0---0-0----0--0--0-0----0-0-0--|
A |--2-x-3-0---0-0----0--0--0-0----0-0-0--|
E |--3-x-0--------------------------------|

then after the chorus, it goes back to the verse

******at the end of the song just go back to the first part of the song
that is basically it (that is my best try)

oh......if you want to use two guitars but can't both play the song, you
could do one of two things:
1)when the lead guitarist is playing you could strum the whole chord while
he is playing (with a lower volume) to give a fuller effect.
2) (my personal choice) You could solo over the song, which sounds very cool.
But you might be saying to yourself, i don't know what scale? Well i'll tell
you which scale, use the G-scale.

this ins't the entire G-scale, just the part that i like to use for the song

E|-----------------------------10-12--------------------------------12-15-17-|

B|-----------------------10-12------------------------------12-15-17---------|

G|----------------7-9-12----------------------------12-14-16-----------------|

D|----------5-7-9-----------------------------12-14--------------------------|

A|------5-7------------------------------12-14-------------------------------|

E|-3-5-7----------------------------12-15------------------------------------|

(the notes are in no particular order, just go crazy)
work with it, it will sound good
