SILENCE - BY THE TEA PARTY
From the album The Edges of Twilight on EMI records
Transcribed by Mark Wiebe
Tuned from low to high D G D G B D
This song has some other weird instruments in it but
this is how I play the guitar part (he probably uses
a twelve string on the album.) This transcription is
probably not to accurate and you'll have to listen to
the song for the timing but I think it should give you
the basic idea.

Here's something I've been working at for a little while now.
Song: SILENCE
Artist: THE TEA PARTY
Tabbed by: KRIST SMITH
-----------------------
This song uses another cool tuning (I think it's something like open Gsus2/D
or something):
e tuned down to d
B tuned down to A
G left the same
D left the same
A tuned down to G
E tuned down to D
There are a lot of instruments in on this, so I'm VERY likely wrong. This
is just MY interpretation. The timing is probably wrong (I'm not that good).
It's just four dashes (-) for every quarter note. This is just a guess, but
I think it's in 4/4 timing (please correct me).

(For the beginning, just improvise by playing assorted notes on the B (A)
string and the two lower ones open [like the verse], but remember to keep
them in scale-just fool around with it).
