Cathedral - Ride Tab

"Ride" by CATHEDRAL (From Ethereal mirror)

Tune your guitar 2.5 steps lower: B E A D F# B.

Ethereal is played entirely using B tuned guitars - maybe that's what
makes it one of the heaviest album in the world.

The verse (shuffle style):

/\/\/ slide /\/\/ slide
0 00 00 00 00 00 05 0 00 00 00 00 00 07
/\/\/ slide 2 0
0 00 00 00 00 00 05 0 00 00 00 00 0

This riff is repeated, with different endings (pointless to rewrite the

Same riff over and over):

4 3 2
2 1 0
h p h p h
4 2 4 2 4 2 4
2

Chorus (If it can be called a chorus):

h
2 4 4 4 2 2 2
4 3 3 2 1

Then a third guitar comes along, playing pretty much the same riff, only

an octave higher:
4 6 6 6 4 4 4
h 6 5 5 7 67676..
/\
| Hammer on and pull off constantly

The following riff:

7 /\/\/
4 4 4 4 4 4 4 9 7 8 9
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 9 9
/ bend gently
7 7 9
4 4 4 4 4 4 4 9 7 9
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 9
The slower part:
h p h p 6 4
4 7 4 7 2 4 2 4 4 7 4 7 2 4 2
4
h p p 3 3 2
2 5 2 5 0 2 0 2 1 1 0
2

The second riff ends differently the second time:

h p p 4 3 2 2 3 4
2 5 2 5 0 2 0 2 4 3 2 2 3 4
2 2 1 0 0 1 2

Interlude Riff (palm mute):

2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4

3 3 3 3 3 3 3 0
A weird lead comes along:
4 h 5 p 4 h 5 p 4 h 5 ......
And then the beautifull lead (which is backed by C#, B, A and D chords):
h s s slide
4 6 6 4 464 2 4 2 1 1 1 2 4 6 6 7 6 7 9 11
/\ 2
| Hammer and pull off, as usual

The comes the verse and the chorus and the song finishes:
