Chord Gitar dan Lirik Lagu A Oleh Cartel

Tuning: Eb, Drop-Db (DbAbDbGbBbeb)

Notes: This is a great finisher to Cartel’s Chroma and neatly wraps up the
album, including elements of songs contained in the collection, such as Burn
this City, Save Us, and the immediately preceding Q. Considering this is a
longer song (9:45), I have tabbed out the song in several parts, denoted by square
([]). For your convenience, a table of contents appears
below:

[“Q”]
[INTERLUDE]
[“Save Us”]
[“Burn this City”/”Save Us”]
[INTERLUDE]
[(END)]

The real meat of the guitar work occurs in the first half of the song, and is
a lot of fun to play. Definitely worth tuning for.

Amp Settings: Once again, plenty of overdrive to get that deep, powerful
sound during the “Save Us” parts. If you’ve listened to the album this far,
then you know what Cartel sounds like anyway 😉

This is looped in the background throughout the whole song, starting at the
end of Q:

Out of rhythm with our time

[“Burn This City”/”Save Us”]
There may be another guitar part here
but I can’t hear it enough to be able to tell.
So in a pinch, let’s just say it’s drums, bass,
and looped guitar!
If there is anything else here, it just follows
the chords above.
This is most audible during the mix between
Burn this City and Save us.

[INTERLUDE]
Chords played:
(Remember guitar is tuned half step down, so these
appear to be: F#, B, E)

The rest is just little riffs played by synth/horns
and vocal melodies. If you want those they’re fairly
easy to figure out, just stick to the Eb major scale.

Fade out to a needle being removed from a turntable.

Enjoy! If you have any comments/questions/feedback
