Dream On Tab

Depeche Mode:  Dream On
The Cheap And Easy Approach

I've seen the Paris DVD and yes, it does seem Mart plays with a guitar in flat
tuning.  But isn't it a pain in the ass to do flat tuning?  I sure think so! So
I came up with the Cheap And Easy Apprach... not only easier to tune, but easy
to play too!  Here goes:

Tuning:  Drop D
Capo 1 (tab relative to the capo)

Main Riff:
e|-----------------
B|-----------------
G|-----------------
D|-----3-0---0---0-
A|---0-----3-------
D|-0-----------3-0-

Alternate Riff
e|-----------------------------
B|-----------------------------
G|-----------------------------
D|-----5-----5-------5-----5---
A|---5-----5---5---5-----5---5-
D|-5-----5-------8-----8-------

or, if you're amazingly cheap, you can do this:

e|-----------------------------
B|-----------------------------
G|-----0-----0-------0-----0---
D|---0-----0---0---0-----0---0-
A|-----------------------------
D|-5-----5-------8-----8-------

And so the bridge part would go like this:

e|-----------
B|-----------
G|-----------
D|-------0-3-
A|---0-3-----
D|-5---------

Isn't that easy?
Here's the format:

On each line of the verse play this:
Main Riff x 3 + Alternate Riff

On the chorus, play this twice:
Alternate Riff + Main Riff x 2

Bridge:  Listen to it, there's alot of those.
For the 2nd guitar in the bridge, who knows?  Play with a slide on the first
two strings is my advice.

To end, I suggest alternating the main riff like this:
e|-----------------
B|-----------------
G|-----------------
D|-----3-0---0-3-0-
A|---0-----3-------
D|-0-------------0-

Go forth, you lazy ones, and play!
