Muse - New Born
*Modified - I noticed a wrong chord, in the chorus - LOOK*
Tabbed By Chris Blackburn - toffy2k@btinternet.com
Muse are ace, cos i saw them live, and this song just rocks. I'm working my way thru
completely tabbing the songs as full as possible, and this was next on my hitlist.
Enjoy
Tuning - Dropped-D DADGBE
Notes
/ slide up
slide down
h hammer on
p pull off
^ string bend
Effects required - Whammy pedal and any means of distortion (preferably two)
Intro - this is played by matt on the piano, so i have arranged it for 2 guitars, if you
are only using one guitar, play the second part, as it sounds better as a solo perfomance.
If you want the piano part, im sure i could write it out and scan it for you, if you email
and ask for it.
Intro Part 1 (played thru once on its own, then second time with part 2)

Scratch around for a bit with distortion on, then the fun part (dont forget to jump around like
a mad man [or woman] whilst playing this part)

Pre-solo
This is just muted strums over the second fret, with increasing the whammy pedal pitch gradually,
and finally to a full one octave before the solo
Solo
This is played with the whammy fully depressed on 1 octave above normal pitch
All notes a tremolo picked extremely quickly
b--|-12--8--5--8--12--7--4--7--12--8--5--8--12--7--4--7--12--8--5--8--|
b--|-13--8--5--8--12--8--5--8--4-5-7--|
Then strum the strings above the nut with some sort of rhythm (if u wish to, cos it sounds ace
if you have pedals in a certain order)
This solo part is then repeated a second time and then drop the whammy
