Ofcourse the chords to Hatesong chorous aren't on there... I belive that theres 2 guitars going there though so it'd be hard to tell what they are...

As it happens, I tabbed the first half of russia on ice a couple of years ago. I'll go see if I still have it.

Once I saw the PT forum collapsing and thus a tab reference doing the same. I started collecting all the PT tabs I could. I have them all saved on my PC as txt files. If you can give me an email addy I would love to pass them on. The Songs I have are.... A Smart Kid Baby Dream In Cellophane Blackest Eyes (2 versions) Buying New Soul Collapse The Light Into Earth Cure For Optimism Disappear Drown With Me Even Less Every Home Is Wired Fadeaway Feel So Low Footprints Futile Gravity Eyelids Heartattack In A Layby In Formaldahyde Jupiter Island Last Chance To Evacuate..... Lightbulb Sun Lips Of Ashes London Nine Cats Phantoms Piano Lessons Prodigal Pure Narcotic Rainy Taxi Russia On Ice Shes Moved On Signify Small Fish Sound of Music Stars Die Stop Swimming Strip The Soul The Jokes On You The Sky Moves Sideways Part 1 This Is No Rehearsal Tinto Brass Trains Waiting Part 1 Wake As A Gun Wedding Nails Where We Would Be Winding Shot into LCTEPEBIIR Thats all of em. Again, I take no credit or responsibility for the credibility of these tabs. I simply just saved them so that when I wanted to learn a song, I could. My thanks go out to the people who did take the time to tab out all these songs. If anyone is interested, post and we will get them posted on the net. Peace Archived member

Hi, I have been playing trains with capo on fifth just as you have, but when SW played it at the astoria he did so with capo on 3rd instead. Just a point of interest as the capo on 5th seems to correspon the album.

Archived member ps. new member here, I used to go to the old board though but dropped off that about 4-5 months ago...then surprised to go there and see it's not there! glad I found you here, especially after finding Deadwing tabs out already! Super work, guys!

Howdy, I could do with some discussion about the website. 1) Is it really pointful? Or are they all on mxtabs etc now? 2) If it is pointful, maybe there's some way I could make it more of a 'public' project - maybe part of this forum or something. 3) If anybody could rewrite some of the tabs (the ones that have been badly copied from some website), mainly on the UTD page I think, so they are readable, that would be great. 4) If anyone has any improved tabs or new tabs, probably best to email them to me at [contact removed]

Don't get rid of the site, there is not much on mxtabs compared to the collection on your website

Hmm. My full transcription of "Prodigal" was reduced to just three lines of (incorrect) chord names on that site. Here's the full transcript again, as posted on the old board, but with a few corrections I made later. Prodigal by Porcupine Tree chords transcribed by Archived member ([contact removed]) Listen to the album to time the chord changes properly. (D,F#m,F,F)x4 D,F#m,F,F I don't know whose side I'm on D,F#m,F,F I don't think that I belong round here D,F#m,F,F If I left the stage would that be wrong? (D,F#m,F,F) D,F#m,F,F I tried to find myself a better way D,F#m,F,F I got religion, but I went astray D,F#m,F,F They took my money and I lost my faith (D,F#m,F,F) Fmaj7,Em13 Rain keeps crawling down the glass Fmaj7,Em13 The good times never seem to last Bb,A... Close your eyes and let the thought pass (D,F#m,F,F)x2 D,F#m,F,F I tried the capsule and I tried the smoke D,F#m,F,F I tried to aid escape like normal folk D,F#m,F,F But I never seemed to get the joke (D,F#m,F,F) Fmaj7,Em13 Rain keeps crawling down the glass Fmaj7,Em13 The good times never seem to last Bb,A Close your eyes and let the thought A... (Close your eyes and let it) pass (D,D, Fsus4,F; Dsus4,D,C) x4 RIFF (D,F#m,F,F)x4 solo D,F#m,F,F I spend my days with all my friends D,F#m,F,F They're the ones on who my life depends D,F#m,F,F I'm gonna miss them when the series ends Fmaj7,Em13 Rain keeps crawling down the glass (Pull yourself together) Fmaj7,Em13 The good times never seem to last (You know it's not so bad) Bb,A Close your eyes and let the thought A... (Close your eyes and let it) pass (D,D, Fsus4,F; Dsus4,D,C) x4 RIFF ?? (D,D, Fsus4,F; Dsus4,D,C) x8 RIFF D... Note: Em13 is essentially a Cmaj7 with the bass blaying an E. The chord is fingered like this: e---0--- A---0--- D---0--- G---2--- B---3--- E---0--- "RIFF" is that incredible "stadium rock" style instrumental passage. Listen to the album for timings, but the fingerings are something like this: e--2--2-----6-6-6-5----3---2---0------ B--3--3-----6-6-6-6----3---3---1------ G--2--2-----5-5-5-5----2---2---0------ D--0--0----------------0---0---2------ A------------------------------3------ E------------------------------------- [Song lyrics and tablature omitted; see archive source.]

[End quote] I just copy what I see! I've never seen this tab before so I didn't "reduce" it! I'll add this one if people think it's fine.

Thanks again, I found some new ones although I thought I had scoured the entire net already... Did you know your site's infested with the most aggressive pop-ups ever seen? At least 2 come up in every window...such a drag. I know, a man's gotta eat, and keep up his site, too. Archived member

Recovered message
The pop-ups are just part of 20m.com - I'm not making any money from them! I'm hoping to move to a new, pop-up free site soon though. In the meantime, corrections and additions are, as always, welcome and wanted.

Not every tab. Missing the rest will flow That's brilliant. Thanks for keeping that site going! It's great!

I just posted a rough tab of "The Rest Will Flow" for you. I'll finish the tab when I get home, and Archived member can add it to his site. But please wait 'til I finish the job. Right now it's kinda half-assed, and I want to finish & double-check it before it gets posted anywhere else.

Recovered message
Sorry it took ten days instead of a few hours, but I've just posted the finished and corrected tablature and chords for "The Rest Will Flow." It's in the thread specifically for that song. http://www.porcupinetreeforum.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1115478780 Archived member, would you mind adding it to your site now, please? Thanks! Anybody else who runs a PT and/or guitar tabs site is welcomed to add it to their own, too, of course. Also, could you add my tabs & chords for "Radioactive Toy," which are posted here? http://www.porcupinetreeforum.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1116419435
