Hope You Die Tab

by Atomic Bitchwax


Artist:   The Atomic Bitchwax
Song:   Hope You Die
Album:   The Atomic Bitchwax
Bassist:   Chris Kosnik

Kosnik has his own unique effect, which he uses alot on this song. The best 
way I can describe it is a synthesized flanger, or maybe a distorted flanger. 
Anyways, I just use a synth effect and it sounds enough like it to work.

h = hammer on
p = pull off
b = bend string up

This is a really cool song.. The focal point of the song is the lyrics, so 
during the verses the musical talent is a little lacking. But it picks up..

Here's the verse riff, repeat it alot..
G|---------
D|---------
A|-3--5----
E|---------


Then play Riff 2..
G|-----------------------------------
D|-----------------------------------
A|-5-5-5-5-----0-3-5-5-5-5-----0-3---
E|---------3p0-------------3p0-------

G|----------------------------------
D|---------------------3------------
A|-5-5-5-5-----0-3-5-5--------------
E|---------3p0-----------3----------


Then the second verse riff is the same as the first verse..
Then play riff 2 again..


Then play Riff 3 for the chorus..
G|------------------------------------
D|-----3-3-5b--5--5-3---------3-3-----
A|-5-5----------------5-3-5-5---------
E|--------------------------------3---


Then to end the chorus play this..
G|-----------------------------
D|----------------5-5--5h7-----
A|-5-5--7-7--8-8---------------
E|-----------------------------

Then play the verse riff again..
Then Riff 2..
Then Riff 3 again for the chorus..

To end this chorus, play this twice..
G|-------------------------5h7-
D|----------------5-5--5h7-----
A|-5-5--7-7--8-8---------------
E|-----------------------------

Then there's a little break, where the bass plays this.. its just riff 2 with 
a slight variation..
G|--------------------------------
D|--------------------------------
A|-5-5--5-3-0-3-5-5--5-3-0-3------
E|--------------------------------

G|--------------------------------
D|----------------2-3-------------
A|-5-5--5-3-0-3-5-----------------
E|-------------------3------------


Then play riff 2..
Then Riff 3 for the chorus..

Then to end this chorus, play this three times..
G|-------------------------5h7-
D|----------------5-5--5h7-----
A|-5-5--7-7--8-8---------------
E|-----------------------------

And then play this for the ending..
G|-------------5h7-5h7-5h7--5h7--5h7--5h7-----------
D|----------------------------------------5h7-------
A|-5--5--5--5---------------------------------8--5--
E|--------------------------------------------------

And thats it.
