I Stay Away tab - alice in chains


From: tmvtzet@cs.vu.nl (Zet van t TM)
Subject: TAB: "I Stay Away" - Alice in Chains


"I Stay Away" by Alice In Chains
From the album Jar of Flies

Tab transcription by Mark van 't Zet (tmvtzet@cs.vu.nl)



After finding the time and the capo I finally got to work on this
song. It looks like there's 3 guitars in this song:

Guitar 1 - a clean electric with a capo on the 5th fret
Guitar 2 - a distorted electric with dropped-D tuning (DADGBE)
Guitar 3 - just your average distorted guitar

It's possible to play the solo with the dropped D (just raise fretnumbers 
on low E-string by 2) and the verse-chords with a finger-barre, but I can't 
advise that.. Here goes..

Notation

XhY     - hammer on
XpY     - pull off
XbY     - bend at fret X to pitch of fret Y
XrY     - release bent note at pitch of fret X to pitch of fret Y
X~~     - vibrato 
(X)     - ghost note
X/Y XY - slides from X up/down to Y
(...)   - hold previous note

Dragon Quest Music Video Remix
Dragon Quest Music Comp Remix is a mix of some of my own gameplay and selected theme music. The scenes and music are as follows: Boat Scene - Styx - I'm Sailing away I dont know but this was the first thing I though of when I first got the boat! Flee Scenes - Alice in Chains - I Stay Away I stay away from battle by running away!( Not really though!) Sex Appeal - ? - What is love Very Fitting for the scenes. City Scene - G n R - Paradise City Baccarat is live Vegas in DQ! Munchie Scenes - ? - Hamster Dance It's like Munchie's theme song Dragovian Scenes - ? - Clubbed to Death Sets a cool mood for taking on this baddie! Hope you like it!
