Ya know, I've been meaning to figure out some Hip songs. I think i'll start with this, as it's a really cool song i'd like to be able to play.

Alright, here's what i've got so far. Sounds damn good with the recording, but this IS me at 1 AM here.
That's what i've got so far, I can't make heads or tales of the main riff in the chorus, but I think the Chords are just F# and E transposed up an octave. Also, i'm pretty sure the Bridge goes like:
If anybody can figure out the rest, especially how the lead riff changes in the chorus we'd almost have a complete tab. I think if we had a tab subforum and got a few folks working on these, we'd have a complete, accurate library of hip tabs in no time.
Also, now that i've shared, can somebody PLEASE figure out the intro to "Are You Ready?" :wink:
Code:
The Bear
"Crazy Discordant Intro Riff"
