Riot on an Empty Street (2004)

Homesick - Kings Of Convenience Tabbed by Simon Bance 2004 Tuning;STANDARD Capo 1 As always there are two guitars. You have to be careful with this song because there are a few 2/2 bars thrown in which you may not notice.

Misread by Kings Of Convenience (live acoustic version) Tabbed by Simon Bance 2004/2005 Dear friends, This one has taken a long time because I was constantly hoping that I could do it even better. Anyway, as I write this it is 00:32 on Friday 4th Feb 2005, and I have just now realised yet ANOTHER possible way to play it. And I think that THIS is the one! :) The crucial change is the fact that we need to detune the G-string! This has allowed me to create a note-perfect tab of the song which I am very happy with. One thing that slightly worries me is the similarity to the chords in Cayman Islands in that Eirik has a tendency to fret with his thumb for bass notes - something I cannot check as I don't have an inetnet connection at this moment, so I can't watch the video of the live version. Nonetheless, if this is the case then, Eirik, perhaps you should play my version - it is easier ;) Have fun playing it - I will release an audio tutorial in the near future, to help with the picking rhythms. Simon ******************EIRIK'S PART (rhythm guitar)********************* Tuning; E A D Gb B E i.e. tune the G string down one semitone Notes: This part requires fingerpicking in typical Eirik style with lots of muted notes which you can easily hear on the recording but are difficult to tab. Anyway, if you have trouble, ask a friend or teacher to help. I will record an audio tutorial for this and some other tabs soon :) Intro; |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----|5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----| |5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----|5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----| |5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----|5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----| |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |5-----5--------|5-----5---------|5-----5--------|5-----5---------| |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |7-----7---7----|--7---7---7-----|7-----7---7----|--7---7---7-----| |5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----|5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----| |7-----7---7----|--7---7---7-----|7-----7---7----|--7---7---7-----| |5-----5--------|5-----5---------|5-----5--------|5-----5---------|www.shedjo.me.uk |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----|5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----| |5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----|5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----| |5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----|5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----| |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |5-----5--------|5-----5---------|5-----5--------|5-----5---------| |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |7-----7---7----|--7---7---7-----|6-----6---6----|--3---3---3-----| |5-----5---5----|--5---5---5-----|6-----6---6----|--3---3---3-----| |7-----7---7----|--7---7---7-----|7-----7---7----|--3---3---3-----| |5-----5--------|5-----5---------|5-----5--------|3-----3---------| |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| These next two lines are then played twice |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |3-----3---3----|3------3---3----|5-----5---5----|5---5-----5-----| |3-----3---3----|3------3---3----|5-----5---5----|5---5-----5-----| |3-----3---3----|3------3---3----|5-----5---5----|5---5-----5-----| |---------------|----------------|3-----3--------|3-----7-7-------| |1-----1--------|3------3--------|---------------|----------------| |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |3-----3---3----|3------3---3----|5-----5---5----|5---5-----5-----| |3-----3---3----|3------3---3----|5-----5---5----|5---5-----5-----| |3-----3---3----|3------3---3----|5-----5---5----|5---5-----5-----| |---------------|----------------|---------------|----------------| |1-----1--------|3------3--------|5-----5--------|------9-9-------| -end of intro- Verse;

Stay Out Of Trouble- Kings Of Convenience Tabbed by Simon Bance 2006 (Requested by Jonah) Tuning;STANDARD Capo 1 (OK so it's possible they have simply tuned up a semitone instead) Sorry this one took so long. I've been busy. In the end it was a really easy one to tab :) And it's easy to play too, but you need two people! Or just record one part yourself and play the other one over it. **Eirik** |------------|-------------|------------|------------| |-----2-----2|-----2-------|-----0-----0|-----0------| |---1-----1--|---1------1--|---1-----1--|---1--------| |--2-----2---|--2------2---|--1-----1---|--1---------| |0-----------|0------------|2-----------|2-----------| |------0-----|-------0-----|------2-----|------2--4--| You don't really need to play the "4" there. I do't think he does it every time, especially when there are other instruments playing the bass note. But I think it sounds better and makes this transcription more complete. You need to play the lowest notes in each pattern to complete the sound for two guitars, but if you have a cello (or whatever) playing them then you can skip them out. ( N.B. If you have other instruments, it is more like this: |------------|-------------|------------|-----------| |-----2-----2|-----2-------|-----0-----0|-----0-----| |---1-----1--|---1------1--|---1-----1--|---1-------| |--2-----2---|--2------2---|--1-----1---|--1--------| |0-----0-----|0------0-----|2-----2-----|2-----2----| |------------|-------------|------------|-----------| < ) Later on he simply plays the same chord shapes but misses out most of the bass notes "Hey baby, what we've got..." etc. |------------|-------------|------------|-----------| |-----2-----2|-----2-------|-----0-----0|-----0-----| |---1-----1--|---1------1--|---1-----1--|---1-------| |--2-----2---|--2------2---|--1-----1---|--1--------| |0-----------|-------------|2-----------|-----------| |------------|-------------|------------|------2----| OK for "Stay out of trouble..." it gets a little more complex; <|------------|------------|------------|------------| |-----5-----5|-----5-----5|-----0-----0|-----2-----2| |---4-----4--|---4-----4--|---1-----1--|---1-----1--| |--6-----6---|--6-----6---|--1-----1---|--2-----2---| |4-----------|4-----------|2-----------|0-----------| |------4-----|------4-----|------2-----|------0-----| |------------|------------|------------|------------|-----------| |-----5-----5|-----5-----5|-----0-----0|-----2-----2|-----2-----| |---4-----4--|---4-----4--|---1-----1--|--2-----2---|--2-----2--| |--6-----6---|--6-----6---|--1-----1---|---2-----2--|---2-----2-| |4-----------|4-----------|2-----------|------4-----|------4----| |------4-----|------4-----|------2-----|2-----------|2----------| |------------|------------|------------|------------|-----------|-----------| |-----4-----4|-----4-----4|-----2-----2|-----2--2---|-----5----5|-----5-----| |--4-----4---|--4-----4---|--2-----2---|--2------2--|---4----4--|---4-----1-| |---4-----4--|---4-----4--|---2-----2--|---2--------|--6----6---|--6-----1--| |------6-----|------6-----|------4-----|------4-----|4----------|4-----2----| |4-----------|4-----------|2-----------|2-----------|-----------|-----------| Then until the end it is... |------------|------------|------------|-----------| |-----2-----2|-----2------|-----0-----0|-----0-----| |---1-----1--|---1-----1--|---1-----1--|---1-------| |--2-----2---|--2-----2---|--1-----1---|--1--------| |0-----0-----|0-----0-----|2-----2-----|2-----2----| |------------|------------|------------|-----------| |------------|------------|------------|-----------| |-----2-----2|-----2------|-----0-----0|-----0-----| |---1-----1--|---1-----1--|---1-----1--|---1-------| |--2-----2---|--2-----2---|--1-----1---|--1--------| |0-----0-----|0-----0-----|2-----2-----|2-----2----| |------------|------------|------------|-----------| |------------|------------|------------|------------| |-----2-----2|-----2--2---|-----4-----4|-----4-----4| |--2-----2---|--2------2--|--4-----4---|--4-----4---| |---2-----2--|---2--------|---4-----4--|---4-----4--| |------4-----|------4-----|------6-----|------6-----| |2-----------|2-----------|4-----------|4-----------| |------------|------------|------------|-----------| |-----2-----2|-----2--2---|-----5-----5|-----5-----| |--2-----2---|--2------2--|---4-----4--|---4-----1-| |---2-----2--|---2--------|--6-----6---|--6-----1--| |------4-----|------4-----|4-----------|4-----2----| |2-----------|2-----------|------------|-----------| Depending on what version you listen to, he might start picking *one string* higher later on, i.e. the first string instead of the second string, etc. **Erlend** Chords: Main bit; X X 2 1 2 0 --> X X 1 1 0 2 (I recommend you flick the chord with your index finger, no plectrum.

X X 4 2 0 0 --> X X 6 4 0 0 X X 6 4 5 4 --> X X 6 4 4 4 The rest is all just recycling the bits we've already looked at.

Love Is No Big Truth - Kings Of Convenience Tabbed by Simon Bance 18/11/04 (I should be in bed sleeping) Tuning; STANDARD This tab is based on the live version! To hear it go to www.kingsofconvenience.org! In the album version the chorus riff is played from the start (but with a plectrum, using heavy palm muting). Maybe I will tab it separately later. The hardest bit is the rhythm to the picking. It is hard to notate especially using tablature so you just have to listen to the record and pick it up.
