Dope Hat


`Marilyn Manson Tab for Guitar:
   "DOPE HAT" off Portriat of an American Family

Tabbed by Daisy Bobbit ([email protected])
Note: Dope Hat uses numerous bends throughout the entire song. This is a
common technique that Daisy incorporated in his guitaring. For the guitar
solo sections you will need to use a wah-wah pedal. The solo sections are
very difficult so try them at a slow speed then work them up to tempo. I
used the lyrics to give you placement of the chords within the song. Enjoy
the candy.

Guitar Notation:
+1/2 =bend up a half step       ^r =release bend
/s =slide up the fretboard      \s =slide down the fretboard
^h =hammer-on                   ^p =pull-off
() =harmonic at that fret       1o =fret 10
~\ =whammy bar down             ~/ =whammy bar up
$ =do not play these not just slide up and back

Dope Hat

Intro

Slide down to F#5 A5 F#5 C5 B5 F#5

THEN SOME DUDE SAYS SOME INTERESTING THINGS

Then slide down to F#5 C#5 C5 B5

I peek into the hole
I struggle for control
the children love the show
but they fail to see the anguish in my eyes
fail to see the anguish in my eyes

THEN THERE IS A SOLO KIND OF THING.  ANYTHING YOU PLAY PRETTY MUCH
SOUNDS RIGHT.  I AM JUST A PIECE.  THE MAIN RIFF PLAYS THROUGH IT.

I scratch around the brim
I let my mind give in
The crowd begins to grin
but they seem to scream as darkness fills my eyes
seem to scream as darkness fills my eyes
it's no suprise

THEN WE HAVE

F#5      A5       F#5   C5 B5
Fail to see the tragic
Turn it into magic
B5          G5                B5       G5
My big top tricks will always make you happy
C#5        A5              C#5     A5
But we all know the hat is wearing me

THEN SLIDE DOWN WHILE STRUMMING.

My bag is in the hat
It's filled with this and that
My vision's getting fat
the rabbits just a monkey in disguise
stars and pills and needles dance before our eyes
They will bite the hand
If it's slower than
the quickness of their scrutinizing eyes

THEN THERE IS ANOTHER SOLO TYPE THING HERE.  I DIDN'T FIGURE IT OUT SO
NOW YOU SHALL SUFFER.  LIKE, DROP YOUR GUITAR AND DANCE ON IT AND IT
MIGHT SOUND RIGHT.  MAYBE NOT...

Fail to see the tragic
Turn it into magic

My big top tricks will always make you happy
but we all know the hat is wearing me

Eb5   B5              Eb5      B5
Chicanery will always make you happy
F5         C#5             F5      C#5
But we all know the hat is wearing me
