The Big Exit


Intro 

Bass (Russell) 

Right my guess is that even thought there isn't a traditional bass (Russell doesn't play 
one live), I think the bass in the song is just bending a low C back and forth between 
C# like so

A|----3b4r3b4r3b4r3b4r3b4r3b4r3b4r3b4r3b4---------------------------------------| 
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

Lead Guitar (Chris) 

Right that weird noise that sounds like a saw can be recreated on a guitar by 
experimenting around on a lot of different effects on a pedal (maybe a lot of wah or  
reverb) but 
again its just a C, and this little note recurs fairly frequently throughout the song 

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
G|-------3b4r3b43b4r3b4r3b4r3b4r3b4r3b4--------------------------------------| 
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
It goes on for eight beats essentially 

Verse 

Chris doesn't do much in the first verse, but in the second i'm pretty sure he just 
shreds (or tremelo picks) a C 

e|--8888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888---|

A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

he then plays this little riff after tom sings "take and you shall receive" and in the 
second verse its "you're a secret only I know", but you can play it whenever really

Solo 

This is the cool little synth solo chris does on his keyboard, just before the breakdown
