Dreams Never End Tab

Dreams Never End - New Order
 
Couldn't find any guitar tabs for this song that were close, despite everyone saying
they were correct,
so I took the liberty of figuring it out by myself by watching New Order play it live.
This should be the complete tab.
 
Tuning:
Standard: EADGBE
 
Intro (As Peter Hook plays the bass intro on six string)
Naturally you'll want to listen to the song for the timing.
 
e:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------x-|
b:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------x-|
g:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------x-|
d:--------------------------------------------9---7---2---4---4/9--9-7--7h9-2---2-x-|
a:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------x-|
E:----7---5---0---2---2/7--7-5--5h7-0---0-----------------------------------------x-|
 
Build-up (This part leads from the guitar intro into the main riff).
There are two guitars here. Gillian and Bernard both palm-mute pick
at the same time. I have included both of their parts.
 
Gillian...
(she also plays this throughout the verse. In the live video from NYC 1981, she adds
a variation every now and then that I think sounds really cool.
 
PALM MUTE
e:-----------------------------------x-|
b:--------2-----2---3---3-----3---3--x-|
g:----2-2---2-2---2---2---2-2---2----x-|
d:-----------------------------------x-|
a:-----------------------------------x-|
E:-----------------------------------x-|
 
VARIATION (Gillian's Part)
 
e:----2-2-0----x-|
b:----------2--x-|
g:-------------x-|
d:-------------x-|
a:-------------x-|
E:-------------x-|
 
Bernard...
(He plays this throughout the verse and transitions to the solo/riff for the bridge.
In the buildup, before the bass starts playing the verse, there is a ringing three-
note riff.)
 
PALM MUTE
e:-------------------x-|
b:-------------------x-|
g:----4-6-4-6-6-4-6--x-|
d:-------------------x-|
a:-------------------x-|
E:-------------------x-|
 
 
Three-note build up that starts the song:
 
e:----------5------5-----5-----5-----5--x-|
b:-------3-------3-----3-----3-----3----x-|
g:----2--------2-----2-----2-----2------x-|
d:--------------------------------------x-|
a:--------------------------------------x-|
E:--------------------------------------x-|
 
Bernard then returns to the verse:
 
PALM MUTE
e:-------------------x-|
b:-------------------x-|
g:----4-6-4-6-6-4-6--x-|
d:-------------------x-|
a:-------------------x-|
E:-------------------x-|
 
Then, the bridge, which Bernard plays. Behind him, Gillian just strums A and D. The riff
for the bridge is played twice.
 
                     A   A A A  D   D D D
e:----------------------------------------|
b:---5--3-3-2-0-2---------------3---3-3-3-|
g:----------------4--2---2-2-2--2---2-2-2-|
d:-------------------2---2-2-2------------|
a:----------------------------------------|
E:----------------------------------------|
 
 
The rest of the song is simply the same as the first two verses. The palm muted picking
with Bernard
and Gillian. The third verse is the only exception, where Bernard begins to strum A and
D also. The
song finishes with Bernard's A-chord.
 
 
THIRD VERSE:
 
     A   D    (There is a strumming pattern to this. Just listen to the song for it.
It's basic.)
e:----------x-|
b:-------3--x-|
g:---2---2--x-|
d:---2------x-|
a:----------x-|
E:----------x-|
 
 
Dreams Never End.
