Date: Sat, 8 Sep 2001 09:54:55 -0400 From: "Effigy" (esper69@hotmail.com) From: "Will" (by way of cathal woods) Subject: b/blink_182/going_away_to_college.tab Song: Going Away To College Album: Enema of the State, Track 4 Artist: Blink 182 Originally transcribed by Effigy - esper69@hotmail.com Corrected by Resiak - vector2uk@hotmail.com I decided to correct this TAB. Effigy's original is very good, but I found a few niggling errors... I've corrected: * The Intro. It's got more than just powerchords. * One note in Riff A and B. * The start and end of the Chorus. Intro: Rhy. Fig. 1 w/light distortion and low speed/depth phasing Note: I'm not quite sure of the rhythm when changing between chords. Just play what sounds right. You can get away without using any distortion at this point, it sounds better with just the phasing in my opinion.
