Zions_Child16 - 2006-10-14

awesome. completely... my favorite song besides Whispers in the Dark, The Last Night, Comatose and Those Nights
good job tabbing!


^dying2live^ - 2006-11-04

Could I play this song in standerd tuning, and still make it sound cool?

Let me know Matenaer_kyle@hotmail.com


^dying2live^ - 2006-11-04

Wait....im just gonna go try it...Duh!


HermionePower - 2006-11-05

What do the slashes mean as in:
5/5
5/5
5/5


guitarcordfreak - 2006-11-09

I think it means to play those notes twice as fast as you regularly would.
Another perfect tab Adam K! very nice!


HermionePower - 2006-11-18

thank you

panhead777 - 2006-11-21

it was good but computer messed it up :( the notes are right itss all on high E


BigGuitarPlaya3 - 2006-12-05

Awsome job man! God bless!


Dani_Boy - 2007-04-01

I haven't looked it all through, but it seems to be a pretty nice tab. Why don't you play it in drop D though? I know most of the other songs of the Comatose album are Drop B, (or 7-stringed guitar) but Falling Inside is easier to play in Drop D I think. Looking For Angels is also easier in Drop D. No criticism, just a little suggestion. Good work!


DarthDapor - 2007-09-11

what should I do on the ending of the solo if my guitar only has 22 frets?


bobdork27 - 2008-02-06

the intro is not right it is way off! it goes something like this
[-8---8-9---8------8-----8-9-5]reapeat once
[-9-8-----3---10-8---9-8------]
[-----------------------------]
[-----------------------------]
[-----------------------------]

DreamersImperia - 2008-04-19

no, the intro's right. If you noticed, it's pretty much the same notes you just wrote down, but one string lower, so it's going to have a higher fret number. Though what you wrote down looks a little high. I played AdamK's intro in Guitar Pro 5 with the Realistic Sound Engine, and it sounded just like the song.


jedet02 - 2008-07-07

First Off great job tabbing this song. My son turned me on to Skillet after seeing them at winter jam.

For those like myself who are self taught and hate all this alternate tuning(not that that has to do with anything). You can just drop D and play everything down 3 frets so if the tab says 5th play it on the 2nd fret. If it says the 3rd fret play it open. I tried it and it sounded fine, it just takes a while transcribing the lead.

I just hate taking the time Im just lazy i guess:)

Anyway, fantastic job!


panhead123 - 2008-08-27

heres an even esier versoinof the intro.
