Funeral for a Friend — Bullet Theory
Tabbed by Sam McNamara — 20/12/03
Ah yes, 'tis a nice ditty from the valleys of Wales. It's good fun to
play as well and has some nice cross rhythms during the bridge/breakdown
which allows you play in triplets.
The tuning is drop—c# which basically means flatten all strings a semitone
except the low E, which drops a tone and a half. Don't panic, it's not
as complex as it looks.
As with all tabs, it semi—likely that it won't have all the little
ornaments in the song and some of the notes won't be the same although
the harmony will be fine.

NB: This is in triplets which is difficult to play and difficult to tab.
If this doesn't play right, use the song as a guide.
