Subject: TAB:"Be Aggressive" Faith No More
'Lo all,
Here's the tab of Faith No More's "Be Aggressive". I'm pretty sure what I
Have here is fairly accurate. I didn't tab out the solo though...
First, there's the keyboard part:
| E | | | | | | |
| B | 5 4 | 5 4 5 | | 5 4 | 5 4 5 | |
| G | | 4 | 5 | | 4 | 5 |
| D | | | 7 8 7 5 | | | 7 8 |
| A | | | | | | |
| E | 0 | | | 0 | | 15\\\ |
Then all the instruments come in and you play this with a real shitty
distortion and lots and LOTS of wah:
| E | | | |
| B | | | |
| G | 7 6 7 | | 7 6 7 |
| D | 6 5 6 | | 6 5 6 >>>>> |
| A | 7 6 7 | 2 3 4 | 7 6 7 0 |
| E | 0 0 0 7 7 0 | 0 0 3 | 0 0 0 |
There's some other little lead fills besides those two, but I don't think
they're really necessary. Those two are the coolest ones anyway.
This here part is for the chorus. Faith No More is not a guitar-based
band so they kinda bury the guitar in most songs. This is mostly just
muting and raking the strings:
| E | | | |
| B | | | |
| G | | | |
| D | x x x x x x x x | x x x x x x x x x | x x x x x x x x x |
| A | x x 5 x x x x x x 4 5 | x x x x x x x x x 5 7 | x x x x x x x x x |
| E | 0 x x x x x x x x | x x x x x x x x x | x x x x x x x x x |
| E | |
| B | |
| G | |
| D | x x x x x x | then back to the main riff. |
| A | x x x x x x 4 5 6 7 |
| E | x x x x x x |
I don't know exactly WHAT to call this next part but it's in there. I
Think it comes in after the second chorus before going into the keyboard
Part from the beginning and then again at the end (outro):
| E | |
| B | |
| G | |
| D | 3 4 5 6 3 4 5 6 3 4 5 6 3 4 5 6 3 4 5 |
| A | 4 5 6 7 4 5 6 7 4 5 6 7 4 5 6 7 |
| E | |
Anyway, just mix the above riffs together where they should be
and you'll at least get something that SOUNDS very much like "Be
Aggressive". The solo's just a bunch of noise in E, so I didn't tab it out.
If you want it that bad, email me and be REALLY nice and I'll tab it and
send it via personal email.
Here's the lyrics:
I started this.
It's all for me.
What's yours is mine and mine is mine, that's plain to see.
So give it up.
I've got to have.
I swallow, I swallow, I swallow, I swallow.
(chorus):
Be aggressive.
B-E aggressive.
B-E-A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E.
Be aggressive.
B-E aggressive.
B-E-A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E.
What someone else
Would leave behind
And spit it out, let go to waste, I claim as mine.
You're my flavor
Of the week
I swallow, I swallow, I swallow, I swallow.
Tall and reckless
Ugly seed.
Reach down my throat you filthy bird. That's all I need!
This empty pit.
I've got to feed
To prove I'm fit. A healthy man I've got to be.
Malnutrition
My submission.
You're the master and I'll take it on my knees.
Ejaculation,
Tribulation.
I swallow, I swallow, I swallow, I swallow.
