~-My Dying Bride-~ --For You-- Tuning is down 1+1/2 steps Low to High: C# F# B E G# C# Time Signature: 3/4 G-1 is Lead Guitar G-2 is Rhythm Guitar Hello all MDB fans! I wanted to make a contribution to The 's Metal Community and i figured a tab would do the trick. This is my favorite MDB tune and when i decided to learn it i was shocked and appalled by the only "For You" tab available. It's horrendous!! This tab is much better and didn't mess anything up. I won't bother with tabbing out palm muting when it's a simple song like this, you should easily be able to hear it for yourself. As far as this riff goes, i slide from note to note because i think it sounds better and fits the tone of the song. Im not sure if that is how it is actually played. I leave the decision up to you...
