Funeral For a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding
Original Artist: ELton John
Cover: Dream Theater
transcribed by: Mike Jones
Alright, here's the deal with this song. I looked all over the net for the tabs to the dream theater version, and never found anything. So, i sat down for a couple of hours and decided to tab it out myself. This is just the first four minutes and fifty seconds, and that includes the piano intro at the beginning. I'm pretty sure it's all correct except for a couple labeled parts. So, if you like this, or need any clarification, or
if i did something wrong, or whatever the hell is going on, e-mail me. belikemike911@netscape.net
have fun
(side note: this is all my own work, so don't going around trying to make lawsuits because it's not used with somebody's permission.)
tablature key
' bend
" release bend
/ slide
h hammer on
p pull off
~ vibrato
tr trill
intro
volume swells. i prefer just to hammer on without picking when the volume's set at zero, and just do the volume control with the picking hand.

that's all for the intro. i'm missing the little part at the beggining between 1:10 and 1:27. i got the basic idea, but it ain't perfect. it revolves around the 15, 17, and 19 frets on both the e and b string. if you need this part, just e-mail me. i'll have it down in a bit.
