Since all you probably don't have three or more guitarists in you praise band, you have to pick and choose with which riffs to play. Main riff: (intro/chorus) This riff is the main riff of the song so this one is definitely a mandatory riff. The first time you play it, play the F to C progression at the end before starting over, and on the 2nd time stay on the G. ------------------------------------------------------------------------|| -0-0--1p0--1p0--1p0--3--------------------------------------------------|| -0-0--0----0----0----2-----2-2--3p2--3p2--3p2--/5-----2--------5--------|| ---------------------------3-3--3----3----3----/5-----2--------5-----5--|| (F-C) ----------------------------------------------------0--------3-------5--|| ---------------------------------------------------------------------3--|| Slide riff: (intro/chorus) This can be heard on the left side of the mix when the band comes in. Use a slide throughout the riff. This is an optional riff you could use if you have more than one guitarist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -/12-12-12\------------10-11\----/5------------------------------------------- -------------------/10-----------/5------------------------------12-10\------- -------------/7----------------------------5\---------10\----/12-------/12---- ----------------------------------------/5--------/10------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ebow Verse riff: (right side of mix) This is played lightly during the verse. Alot of variation is used - the second bar below is an example. You can just pick the notes, but an Ebow matches the sound the best. -----------------------------------|------------------------------------------ -----------------------------------|------------------------------------------ -----------------------------------|------------------------------------------ -----------------------------------|------------------------------------------ --7h9h10vv---12vv----9vv---\--3vv--|--7h9h10vv---12-/-14-12vv---9vv--\--3vv--- -----------------------------------|------------------------------------------ Refrain riffs: The refrain has two parts: Gtr.1 playing octaves and Gtr.2 playing octave bends. I would stick to Gtr.1 unless you have a lot guitarists. Gtr.1 Gtr.2 - **play each octave 8 times -----------------------------------||--------------------------------------- -----------------------------------||-11------13-------15-------17---------- -3-3-3--3-3-3--/7---5-5-5--5-5-5---||-13b15---15b17----17b19----19b21------- -x-x-x--x-x-x---x---x-x-x--x-x-x---||--------------------------------------- -1-1-1--1-1-1--/5---3-3-3--3-3-3---||--------------------------------------- -----------------------------------||--------------------------------------- This is the end of the refrain - the really heavy part. You can play this several different ways to achieve the sound. The third option is only for bands with at least three guitarists, because it uses dropped-D tuning. ---------------|-------------------|E--------------------| ---------------|-------------------|B--------------------| ---------------|-----------7-------|G--------------------| -3--3---0------|--3--3-----7-------|D----3--3-----0------| -3--3---0------|--3--3-----5-------|A----3--3-----0------| ---------------|--1--1-----5-------|D----3--3-----0------| Ho-ly One! or Ho-ly One! or Ho-ly One!
