Song: Madness is Genius by Design Album: Never Bet the Devil Your Head Music by: Subrosa Tabbed by: db This is the arranger's own work and is not guaranteed to be 100% accurate. Even so, if you have any comments, questions, or corrections, please feel free to email me at dbroyles@hotmail.com. Thank you and enjoy the tablature. All strings tune down one half step, but tune the G string (or the 3rd) up to Bb. From low to high, the guitar should be at bE, bA, bD, bB, bB, bE. Make sure your second and third strings are unison (or they ring the same note, creating a sound resemblant to a 12-string guitar). __ denotes a tie between notes / or \ are up and down slides respectively . is a palm mute given to a single note or chord ~~ is a vibrato The intro is played on a slightly dirty sounding guitar with the volume turned down, playing the following figure (Note: Tablature is written as if the guitar were not tuned down a half step to reduce compexity; in this case, tune the G up to B.) : Riff A _____E5(sus4)_________________________. E-|-----------------------------------| B-|-----------------------------------| B-|-----------------------------------| D-|--------2--2--2----------2--2--2---| A-|--2--2--2--0--2----2--2--2--0--2---| E-|--0--0--0--0--0----0--0--0--0--0---| light P.

Then there is the little 2nd chorus figure: E-| B-|------/3-/3----/4-/4-------------------------| B-|------/3-/3----/4-/4-------------/11-12-11\--| D-|------------------------/8-/8----------------| A-|---------------------------------------------| E-|--0-0-------0-0------0-0------0-0------------| From there it uses all the previous riffs for the most part. After the "Not afraid" part, Travis plays something really weird that I don't have here unfortunately. But by listening to the song you should be able to figure out where what goes. Have fun!
