Tom: A
"TERRANOVA”
From the album PROGRESS,REFORM.
This is played in standard tuning with lots of reverb and rhythmic delay (it’s in 6/8,
your pedal so you get one repeat every beat). The verses are cleaner than clean, then
in some distortion for the chorus, bridge and solo.
For the most part I haven’t notated any rhythms because it’s all heavily on the beat.
to the song to work them out and see where the vocals fit in. Enjoy!

2nd verse
The first part has no guitar, just synths, but if you want to play along anyway I think
just the chorus chords but without the open strings.
When "Oh, the end cannot be far” comes in, play Verse Riff 2 four times.
