Band: COLD
Song: The Switch
Album: COLD
Tabber: Nathan Ballard(GoatHead)
Tuning: F,A,D,C,G,D
I think COLD’S whole album is
In drop-C tuning, but in this
Song I feel no need for drop-c
Tuneing so I tabbed it out in
Standard drop d tuneing. You can
Play it in drop-c if you want, but
You’ll have to change a few things
Around.

Scooter strums this chord while
Jeremy plays the bass line below.

If you dont have bass combine them
both by struming these chords. This works!

This chord is strumed a few times before
Kelly comes in with his opening lead.
Riff D (opening lead)
Im not sure what effect Kelly uses on this lead
im dont know much effects when i hear em except for
Dist., Flange, Chorus, Tremelo and Wah-wah.
But if i had to guess what effect he was using i would guess he has
Wah-Wah, Very slight dist., Flange(maybe) im not sure.
there are some slight Pitch Harmonics that Kelly throws in
a few times.

Riff C
Play Riff A or B (depends on if you have
bass or not) for the verses.
While Scooter plays the verse chord(s),
Kelly plays this small lead part.

"Chorus"
I dont think Kelly plays any lead stuff in the chorus, Just plays
the chords along with Scooter.
I hear an effect in the chorus besides dist. but im not sure
what it is though.
"i cant change Guess who came to kill the love here"

These chords are strumed more times than they are shown
i just put how to play em and when to play em, all you gotta
do is listen to the song to find out how many times you strum em.

I didnt put down the time signature for the lead so your gonna have to
listen to the song to get down how many times you pick the notes, you should get it if you just listen!
Then comes the interlude when Scooter sings
Can't Kill Monsters! Right after Kelly's lead
and then the Chorus one last time.
You should be able to figure it out if you
just listen for the time signature.
ENJOY ALL YOU COLD FANS OUT THERE!
