FAIR TRADE - Tiny Moving Parts
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: BePet

NOTE: Here's my attempt of "Fair Trade" by Tiny Moving Parts. It's probably not absolutely perfect and the
tuning might not be spot-on, but I feel it's pretty close. It's not too hard of a song to do although the
verse after the intro can be tricky, and it's very fun to play if you don't mind tuning your guitar weirdly.
Feel free to email me any corrections or comments regarding this tab. I've been thinking that if everybody
is having trouble with it I can post a cover of myself playing it on YouTube to show you how to play it, so
email me if I should or not, or if there's anything I can clear up.
The tuning is not standard EADGBe, but FADGCe with a Capo on the 5th fret. The way I tabbed this was that it's
not relative to the capo, which means that 5 = open string. Also, the "multipliers" (x2; x6; x!!! etc.) show
you how many times to play a certain part of the song. If the multiplier is behind a chord, then you play that
chord a certain amount of times. If it's within a box/bar, then you play that section of the box/bar that many
times. And when it is outside the box/bar (like on the far-right of the Guitar One Intro/Guitar Two Intro
below), then you play that entire bar that many times. I hope that cleared up any confusion regarding that
since this is only my 2nd tab and i suk.
Lastly, the notes in parentheses are notes I couldn't distinguish and I either guessed were there, or
they just sounded good with the song. Hopefully they don't confuse you too much and maybe you can replace them
with other notes that sound even better.
