Hey guys, this is an update on a tab I did years ago, its for the weight (the opener to
editors' fourth album). I already tabbed the demo acoustic version of the song back when
it was called "The weight of your love" but here's the album version
Opening riff
Lead Guitar

Verse Riff
Rhythm Guitar

or alternatively play this

Or even this variation

Verse bridge (The "strike down on me" part)

While this happens the bass kicks in and does this

Then the bass carries on playing this riff twice while the rhythm plays the verse riff again

Chorus

On the second chorus a violin does this every now and again

And heres the "ah ah" vocal melody in the second chorus
