blindside
Teddybear
off their self-titled release
on Solid State and their 
Empty Box EP on Day-Glo records
by Matt Boes

This starts with a picked chord sequence:
E|----0-------0
B|--0--0-----0-
G|-2-2--2---3--
D|3------3-2---
play it twice, but remember you will play it much more.
The bass kicks in(I'll write a separate bass tab) and plays for a bit,
and the guitar comes in after "have no fear, Saviour that's me"
with 4 more of the beginning chord sequence strums.
Kick in distortion and strum
E|0
B|0
G|2  "you call on my name"
D|3
----
E|0
B|0
G|3  "and I heard you"
D|2
and then hit the distortion pedal off and strum the opening 
chord pattern 12 more times.
Then Christian yells "I'll never become your teddybear!!!!!!"
play F
E|--x---
B|--x---
G|--x---
D|33x333
A|33x333
E|11x111
wait for bass and play again
wait for vocals and play again
then play 
  A  A# A#/E 
D|7--8--8----7-8-8
A|7--8--8----7-8-8
E|5--6--0----5-6-0
then play the F and A-A#-A#/E 2 more times and then play the F
and play 
D|7-5-7-8-7-5
A|7-5-7-8-7-5
E|5-3-5-6-5-3
then play those sequences again
The bass plays for a bit
after "savior that's me" hit this harmonic(touch the string at the fret
but don't press down and pluck it)
B|5-
G|-5
then the rest is pretty much the same as above except there is a new
guitar line at "when you cry..."
it goes
A|-------3/4/5-5-5---------------
E|0-0-0-0---------0-0-0-0-3/5-5-5
that goes a few times and there is a bass/guitar solo at the end that
goes
A|--7-6---5-4---------7
E|0-----7-----5-0-0-0--
and that plays for a bit and then I'm no teddybear again and
you've got a really cool song done.
Matt
