CLOSER
tanscribed by John Vettese ([email protected])
as recorded on NIN's album The Downward Spiral

-There is alot more going on in this song than what I have transcribed. 
 Most of it is synth, but I know that alot of the synth is changed to 
 guitar when Trent preforms it with his live band so I transcribed it for
 guitar and bass. To have it sound exactly like it does on the album, 
you'd
 need 4 guitars (all with effects processers), two drum sets, and a bass.
 
 I'm assuming that you have one or maybe two guitars (and if you're in a 

 band, a bass) so that's all I transcribed it for. Also I'm just posting
 the main riffs. You can figure out how many times to play them.

[additions at end of document]

     This is the latest single from NIN off the downward spiral-a cool
song,an easy song...
 
 
                                CLOSER
                               --------
        Note that this may not be totally correct, as I'm trying to adapt a
synth line to guitar-note the tuning...this song is played best with an 
envelope filter, but for those who don't have one, a wah sounds ok...
 
Tuning (low to high):C,G,D,G,B,E

        I know that there's lots more to it, but I haven't figured it out
yet,and I've got a lot of other things to tab out...E-Mail me if there's
anything 
you want posted, and I'll see about tabbing it...
