Price Of Gas Ver 1 by Bloc Party
Bloc Party - Price Of Gas ver 1 guitar tab
Band: Bloc Party
Song: Price of Gas
Album: Silent Alarm
Tabber: DenisDeLeukste
This song is filled with effects. I don’t quite know what kind of mix of effects
it is but I believe it’s some sort of mix of delay and a little bit of flanger
and some kind of harmonics or sorts.
Intro
|-------------------------|
|-------------------------| (Play with some play muting and real quick,
|--1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1--------| also put a bit delay and lots of reverb in it)

I've been driving, a mid sized car,
I never hurt anyone
Is that a fact?
Is that a fact?
Is that a fact?
Is that a fact?
The price of gas keeps on rising
Nothing comes for free
Make like a stone, make like a plant
Make like a stone, make like a plant
I can tell you, how this ends
(I don't know what they play in the last part of the Verse, they play 4 notes
with effects.)

The next part is rather hard to find because I couldn’t hear Guitar One very good.
He plays, I think, the same sort of riff as Guitar Two but it sounds higher or
with another effect. These are the parts for Guitar Two. You have to play very fast.
Probably there are also several effects but I wouldn’t know which effects they use.

(I don’t know what Guitar One plays in the first four parts because it’s again
very difficult to hear but I believe he plays along with Guitar Two the main riff
from the Chorus but a bit higher like I’ve tabbed here)

We're gonna win this
