WARHEADS
EXTREME
(Nuno Bettencourt, Gary Cherone)

Transcribed By Sócrates
<socrates@dreamtheater.zzn.com>

This is as I think that WARHEADS sounds, it is a
quite difficult song to
perform hearing, so any mistake that has, please
sendme a e-mail.
I think that the song is in 4/4 but in fact I didn't
occur the work of
separating it by compasses, the only part which I
separated by compasses
was the part of the solo, so I recommend you that
listen to the song well.
The part of the solo I take it from the tablature of
Aaron Shaw
<distort@woronzow.netkonect.co.uk>, with some
alterations made by me,
Thanx Aaron.

Note: The sound of the siren which appears in the
introduction, could
imitate with the 7 harmonic on the G string and the
bar of your guitar.

Legend:

<> = artificial harmonics
() = natural harmonics
^ = pull-off & hammer-on
/\ = slide
x = dead note
~~~ = vibrato
... = palm mute
t = tapping
+ o 1+ = bend ½ o 1 tone
+- o 1+- = bend ½ o 1 & release
+½ o +1 = prebend ½ o 1 tone

Well, after long hours working on this.

Here it goes!.

>From here are only triplets, to the rest of the solo
I'm not very certain if
it's at 4/4 and I think that the tempo changes too, so
excuse me if the
separation of compasses is not the correct.

Hey, really Nuno uses
a quite peculiar
technique here: as Aaron says, Nuno puts
his right hand in the frets 10,9,8 while
make the ligatures with his left hand.
I made some modifications: with the right
hand do a tap in the 10,9,8 and then
continue with your left hand making the
ligatures. (Turn on your Wha-Wha)

this is more or less
