No Giving Up Tab

Artist: Crossfade
Song: No Giving Up
Album: Crossfade
Tuning: Drop B (B F# B E G# C#)
 
Alright, this will be my first tab for Ultimate Guitar. I've submitted some tabs to
where my username is Dani_Boy, so if you want to see my christian tabs you can check
out.
 
No Giving Up is a very uplifting song, and it is also a song with some neat guitarplay.
does a lot of their stuff (maybe everything) with a 7-stringed guitar, but since i don't
one I've tabbed this in Drop B. I also think that this song seems to be easier to play
dropped mode.
 
This song uses a lot of distortion for the intro/chorus stuff, pretty clean sound for
verses and a wierd, cool effect for the solo. During the solo and a little bit into the
you can hear the verse riff with slightly more distortion. As you can see I talk way too
so let's get on with it.
 
h = Hammer on
p = Pull off
b = Bend
/ = Upward slide
\ = Downward slide (All slides quick and short)
x = Scratching or muting (In this song only complete muting. You will have
    to stretch your index finger over the entire third fret, play all the
    third fret notes and mute the two strings with the same finger.)

Okay, there you go. At some parts it might seem a little bit confusing due to the "two
notes" like 10, 12 and so on, but I don't think you'll have too much problems with that.
ROCKS!!!
God Bless,
Daniel
