Song: Father
Tabbed by : silkmoth

I did a real quick tab for this, cos i saw that no one had it anywhere.
So this is the basics

I think hes in drop d for this tune, but i tabbed it for standard

Intro:

|----0--------|------0------|-----0-------|----0----|
|-------------|-------------|---------1---|---------|
|-0-----0-----|--0------3---|--0----------|-0-----0-|
|-------------|-------------|-------------|---------|
|-------------|-------------|-------------|---------|
|-------------|-------------|-------------|---------|

-

In the verses, hes fooling around with a type 2 E power chord.

-

Main Riff: Listen to song for rythem and whatnot.

|-----------------------12---|
|-------------------------12-|
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|-12-10-12-10-12-10-12-------| Repeat


Riff 2

|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4---------|
|-------------------------------------------------0--0---|


during the mini litte breakdown, This is where i discovered he was in drop D. Which was
weird cos he didnt need to turn down to play it. He messes with a "F"

You can play this on standard tuning :

|--------|
|--------|
|--------|
|----3---|
|--------|
|--------|

If you wanted you could Tune down, and then transpose everything to play in Drop D.Even
though the rest of the song, you really dont have to tune down. i dont know if nikki sixx
uses a 6 string or not, if thats the case thats why he tuned down.

And thats about it

ANYONE WANT TO TAB THE DRUMS OUT FOR THIS SONG??
I DISPISE TABBING OUT DRUMS

im pretty sure that this was off the CD that they started to go 'nine inch nails' which i really thought was gay as hell... i might be wrong but i really like how you thought of how the song is distorted and how he portraits the image of his father... thats artsy adn its awesome right on.

this song is about nikki's father and the resentment and anger he feels for his dad for leaving him when he was little

i think the song is all distorted coz nikki's image of his father is distorted coz he never got to know him properly and he has know idea what kind of person he is.
