Buried Alive

Band:    Avenged Sevenfold
Album:  Nightmare
Track:  Buried Alive (6:45)

Spent a couple of days on this one... I have tried to 
tab all the parts as accurately as possible, so enjoy. 
Standard tuning for all guitars.

I have added some brief notes alongside the tab, but 
here is a more detailed explanation of each part:

Lead Guitar Solo: This track covers the guitar solos in 
the track, namely at 4:28 and 5:53. This is obviously 
the hardest part and really could be combined with one 
of the panned Lead Guitar tracks. This tab is also likely 
to be less accurate (especially the end of that first 
solo!).

Lead Guitar 1 and 2: These tracks are the left and 
right panned harmony parts throughout the song, such 
as in the intro and break. Both should be correctly 
panned (i.e. the left-panned track is heard on the left 
on the actual song).

Rhythm Guitar 1 and 2: These tracks contain all of the 
heavy (distorted) rhythm parts. They are panned for the 
choruses where each plays a harmony but are 
otherwise the same.

Rhythm Overdub: This part is solely for the harmony 
over the final riff that is centered, so could be played 
as one of the rhythm guitar parts were it not for the 
different in panning.

Bass: Upto a point in the song you can just about 
make out the bass, and I have tried to transcribe parts 
I could hear. It always follows the root notes of the 
chords played, with the occasional fill. Feel free to play 
it how you want as I doubt this tab is particularly 
accurate.

Clean Guitar: This track plays the clean intro and 
arpeggiated parts up to the chorus. It does not 
continue further into the song. Again, I mainly 
transcribed the basic chord changes so I would advise 
 not taking the actual pattern and notes as law.

Clean Overdub: This part is for the low notes that 
accompany the clean guitar intro (all of the root notes 
could be played here, but I added them to the clean 
guitar track for convenience. It also plays the 
harmonics in the intro.

Strings: These are heard on the intro and verses, as 
far as I can tell there are two parts - one high and one 
low (presumably violin and cello). I added them just for 
authenticity.

Drums: I have endeavoured to transcribe every drum 
fill and nuance I could make out, so hopefully this part 
is accurate. There are slight variations between verses 
etc. but this part could easily be used.

Thanks for reading (hopefully) and good luck learning 
this great song!
