Purify tab

Purify

Guitar tabs for Purify by Placebo 
from their new album 'Loud Like Love'. 
I worked this out partly by ear and from 
watching live footage of the band playing, 
so it may not be 100% accurate (especially for the Chorus) 

Tuning:EADGBE 
Also when I play it, I use an octaver set to an octave higher 

Intro: 

 harmonics 

E|-------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|-------------------------------------------------------------| 
G|-----------------------5-5-5---------------------------| 
D|------------5-5-5-----------5-5-5----------------| 
A|-5-5-5-------------------------------------------------|5-5-5-5 
E|-------------------------------------------------------------| 

x4 

verse 1: 
same as intro x8 

Chorus: (not 100% certain on it, so please correct me if I'm wrong) 

E|-------------------------------------------| 
B|-------------------------------------------| 
G|---------7------7-7-7-10-10-10-13-13-13----| 
D|--8------7---------------------------------|   x2 
A|--8-x16--5-x16--5-5-5-8--8--8--11-11-11----| 
E|--6----------------------------------------| 

Only play octave notes after the second repeat 

I think Brian just plays the bass notes on those power chords, but I'm not certain on it. 

2nd Verse: 
Same as 1st x8 

2nd Chorus 
Same as 1st x4 

Solo: 

When I play it, I use no distortion, Compression, a bit of delay and a octaver set  
to an octave higher 

E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
G|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
D|-15-15-15-14-14-14-10-10-10-12-12-12-10-10-9-9-5-5-5-7-7-7------------------------------------| 
A|-----------------------------------------------------------3-3-3-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--------------| 
E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

whole thing x2 

end solo on 

D|-----------------| 
A|---10br11-10br11-| 
E|-----------------| 

Break for i think about 14 bars(bass, drums and vocals) 

Come in on 15th bar with: 

E|----------------| 
B|----------------| 
G|------7---------|

or 

G|--12br13-12br13--| 
D|-----------------| 
A|-----------------| 
(which ever sounds better)
