Artist: Blindside
Song: Pitiful
Album: Silence
Tabbed by: Brian Eisenhard

Cool song with nice sound. I had it stuck in my head one day and decide to
figure it out,
so heres my interpretation of it. This is my first tab but I've been playing
for 4 years,
so I'd like to think its fairly accurate.

Tuning:
Ok When i figured out this song i had my guitar tuned down 1/2 step and
dropped D,
But I'm sure it sounds perfectly fine in normal tuning, just play everything
1 fret lower.
Im too lazy to retune mine normal or try to think and lower all the numbers
by 1.
Also the chorus and solo sound good with some reverb or maybe a slight
flange.

Notation:
 = slide down    most of the slides in this song are fast in between note
changes
/ = slide up       he slides down a  few frets then back up to the note.
h = hammer on
p = pull off
~ = ring
( ) = ghost note not picked
PM = palm muting

He actually follows it with some weird outro riff or scale but i cant
hear it well enough to figure it out. If you watch the video of them playing
live on the Conan O'Brien show you can kinda see him play part of the outro.
Well thats all. I hope you it sounds ok. Sorry about the tuning for all you
who
keep your guitars in normal tuning.
