                             Cardiac Arrest - Bad Suns
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||
Tabbed by: Dave H

Awesome track from the up-and-coming SoCal-based Bad Suns...I'd highly 
recommend their Transpose EP as well.

Pretty sure they play it tuned down half a step to allow for the 
harmonics at the beginning, but I tabbed it out in standard tuning because I 
hate alternate tuning and there's an easy way around the harmonics (see below).
Enjoy!

Tuning: Standard
No Capo

[Intro]

        Two options here... play the actual harmonic version, tune the whole 
guitar down a half step, and add a number to all the notes on this tab or play 
this in standard and call it good:

[Verse]

1: "I've been trying to keep my grip, yeah I think I'm over this 
I can hear it now, oh no 
Yeah, my tongue, I'll let it slip. Why'd I do those things I did? 
I can taste it now, oh no"

2: "My innards turn, your eyes, they roll. I'll be there to take the fall 
I can feel it now, oh no 
Same old story since day one, but I've got no place to run 
I can see it now, oh no"

[Chorus]

"I'll try my best. How much do I invest? 
Like cardiac arrest, high voltage in her lips 
I'll try my best. How much do I invest? 
Like cardiac arrest, high voltage when we kiss"

(This is as close to his strumming pattern as I could make it look; 
give it a listen or two to try to match the rhythm if you have difficulty.  
As far as I can tell he's just playing some broken chords derived from the 
pentatonic scale so improv to whatever you think sounds good)
