	             The City of the Sun - Kevin Gilbert

Tabbed By : Sean Pierce

Tuning: Standard

A very fun song to play. About as accurate as I can get. Kinda complicated to write out 
but I'll try my best. To help with confusion of the order of the song, I will put the 
complete order at the end.

KEY:
^ ==> slight bend
/ ==> slide up
x ==> mute string

Crank up the volume and the tone and have fun!

INTRO:

G|----------------------------|
D|-----3-------3-----3-5^-----|
A|-3-5---3-3h5---3-5------3-5-|
E|----------------------------| x2

VERSE:

G|----------------------------|
D|-----3-------3-----3-5^-----|
A|-3-5---3-3h5---3-5------3-5-|
E|----------------------------| x2

G|----------------------------|
D|-----6-------6-----6-8^-----|
A|-6-8---6-6h8---6-8------6-8-|
E|----------------------------| x2

G|-----------------------------------------|
D|-------10----------10-------10-12^-------|
A|-10-12----10-10h12----10-12--------10-12-|
E|-----------------------------------------|

G|-------------------------------------------|
D|-------10----------10-------10-12-10-12-14-|
A|-10-12----10-10h12----10-12----------------|
E|-------------------------------------------|

on the first verse you play through this twice but on the second play through the 
end looks like this:

G|----------------------------------------14|
D|-------10----------10-------10-12^--------|
A|-10-12----10-10h12----10-12--------10-12--|
E|------------------------------------------|

G|-------------------|
D|-------10----------|
A|-10-12----10-10h12-|
E|-------------------|
This leads right into the chorus ==>

CHORUS pt1:

G|-----------------------------11-9-----------------------------------|
D|-------------7--------------------11--------------------------------|
A|-10-10-9-7-9---7-9-7-10-10-9---------9-xxx--------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
(it will occasionally change back and forth between 10-10-9 and 7-7-9-| listen for it)

CHORUS pt2:

G|---------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------11-9------11-------11-9-------9-7-----9-----------------|
A|-10-10------11---------------------------9-----6/7/8/9/10-10-9-|
E|---------------9----12-13------12-11-------7-------------------|

(once again order will be at the end)

BRIDGE:

Before this part there will be a moment of just Kevin and Guitar. Hang tight and listen 
to the greatness that is Kevin Gilbert until the drums build up.

G|-----6--------4------------------------|
D|-----------------------4------------5--|
A|-4-4--4-4-2-2--2-2---------------------|
E|-------------------2-2--2-2/3-3-3-3--3-| (Played like this the first time)

G|-----6------4-------------------------|
D|---------------------4------------5---|
A|-2/4--4-2-2--2-2----------------------|
E|-----------------2-2--2-2/3-3-3-3--3--| (Then played like this with that slide in the 
beginning three times)

And on the last play through you'll do this:

G|--------------------|
D|--------------------|
A|--------------------|
E|-3-3-3-4-4-4-5-5-5--|

Which will lead right back into the verse and there you go

Sorry if this is at all confusing. But hey, this is Kevin Gilbert. Did you think it 
would be easy ;)? If you listen to the song you should have no problem figuring out what to 
play when, mainly I just didn't want to write out all the repeating parts.
