Subject: TAB: Switch 625 by Def Leppard

Here's my version of Def Leppard's Switch 625.

                      SWITCH 625 - by Def Leppard

                     (From the album High 'n' Dry)

Tabbed by Ronaldo Cordeiro.

Notation:

~      vibrato
/      slide up
\      slide down
<12>   harmonics
6b(7)  bend up to note between brackets
^      hammer-on / pull-off
/////  tremolo picking

The song begins with two guitars. The first guitar repeats the 4 bar pattern
below 4 times:

Guitar 1. Distorted tone. Let ring.
                                                            (*)
E :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
B :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
G :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
D :----5-----------|----3-----------|----1-----------|----------------|
A :--5-------------|--3-------------|--1-------------|----------------|
E :3---------------|3---------------|3---------------|----------------|

(*) Guitar 2 enters at this point:

   1st. time                      2nd. time
   (Natural harmonics)
   triplet feel

E :--------------------|------   |-------------------|
B :---------------<12>-|------   |-------------------|
G :--------<5>---------|<12>--   |----<12>-----------|
D :------------<5>-----|------   |----<12>-----------|
A :--------------------|------   |-------------------|
E :--------------------|------   |-------------------|

  3rd. time                       4th. time

e :--------------------|------   |-------------------|
B :------------<12>----|------   |-------------------|
G :--------<5>---------|<12>--   |---------------12\-|
D :----------------<7>-|------   |---------------12\-|
A :--------------------|------   |-------------------|
E :--------------------|------   |-------------------|


Repeat the progression below 4 times varying the last bar as indicated:

  (Don't let notes ring)                                  1st. time
E :-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||----------------|
B :-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||----------------|
G :-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||----------------|
D :----5~-----------|----3~-----------|----1~-----------||----------------|
A :--5--------------|--3--------------|--1--------------||----------------|
E :3--------3-3-3-3-|3--------3-3-3-3-|3--------3-3-3-3-||3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|

   2nd. time             3rd. time               4th. time
   (grad. increase)

E :----------------|     |----------------|      |----------------|
B :----------------|     |----------------|      |----------------|
G :----------------|     |----------------|      |----------------|
D :5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|     |----------------|      |----------------|
A :5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|     |------------3-2-|      |------------3-2-|
E :3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|     |3-3-3-3-3-1-----|      |3-3-3-1-3-1-----|


There are many alternate ways to play the next part. I usually try
to keep the ascending notes on the same string to make slides easier.


E :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
B :----------------|----------------|----15----------|----------------|
G :------2-----3---|3/5---5-5/7-7-7/|12----12~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\---|

6b(7)   Pick and bend half tone
(7)/    Pick again while holding bend and slide up to the next note
15\     Pick again and slide down


E :-----------------------|-----------------------|-----------------------|

In the next part the guitar is doubled but the recording
wasn't clear enough to me, so I tabbed only the main guitar:

  
E :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
B :-----10---11-13-11----|-----10---11-13-11----|-----10---11-13-11----|
G :-------------------12-|-------------------12-|-------------------12-|
D :12--------------------|12--------------------|13--------------------|
A :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
E :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|


E :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
B :-----10---11-13-11----|-----10---11-13-11----|-----10---11-13-11----|
G :-------------------12-|-------------------12-|-------------------12-|
D :13--------------------|10--------------------|10--------------------|
A :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
E :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|


E :----------------------|----------------------|-------10-------------|
B :-----10---11-13-11----|-----10---11-13-11----|------11-----13-11----|
G :-------------------12-|-------------------12-|-----12---12-------12-|
D :13--------------------|13--------------------|12--------------------|
A :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
E :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|


E :-------10-------------|-------10-------------|-------10-------------|
B :------11-----13-11----|------11-----13-11----|------11-----13-11----|
G :-----12---12-------12-|-----12---12-------12-|-----12---12-------12-|
D :12--------------------|13--------------------|13--------------------|
A :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
E :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|


E :-------10-------------|-------10-------------|-------10-------------|
B :------11-----13-11----|------11-----13-11----|------11-----13-11----|
G :-----12---12-------12-|-----12---12-------12-|-----12---12-------12-|
D :10--------------------|10--------------------|13--------------------|
A :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
E :----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|


E :-------10-------------|
B :------11-----13-11----|
G :-----12---12-------12\|
D :13--------------------|
A :----------------------|
E :----------------------|


Now repeat this 3 times (you've seen this before):

E :-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|----------------|
B :-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|----------------|
G :-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|----------------|
D :----5~-----------|----3~-----------|----1~-----------|----------------|
A :--5--------------|--3--------------|--1--------------|------------3-2-|
E :3--------3-3-3-3-|3--------3-3-3-3-|3--------3-3-3-3-|3-3-3-3-3-1-----|


Finally the ending section. I'm not sure about the faster notes but I think
the structure is correct:

E :-----------|--------------------------------|-------------------------|
B :-----------|3-------3-----3-----3-----3-----|3-----3------------------|
G :-----------|5b(7)---5b(7)-5b(7)-5b(7)-5b(7)-|5b(7)-5b(7)r5-3----------|
D :--X\-------|--------------------------------|----------------5~-------|
A :--X\-------|--------------------------------|-------------------------|
E :-----------|--------------------------------|-------------------------|


E :--------------------------------|----------------------------|
B :--------------------------------|----------------------------|
G :2^0^2^0^2^0^2^0^3^0^3^0^3^0^3^0^|5^0^5^0^5^0^5^0^5^0^5^0^5^0-|
D :--------------------------------|----------------------------|
A :--------------------------------|----------------------------|
E :--------------------------------|----------------------------|


E :-----------------------|
B :8-----------8----------|
G :10b(12)-----10b(12)----|
D :-----------------------|
A :-----------------------|
E :-----------------------|

E :-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B :-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G :8---8////////////-8-7-5-7-5-3-5-3---3------------------------------------|
D :----------------------------------5---5-3-5-3----------------------------|
A :--------------------------------------------------3---1---------------1--|
E :----------------------------------------------3-----------3---1---3------|

             slow bend
             1/4 tone
E :-------------------|------------------|-------------------|
B :-------------------|------------------|-------------------|
G :-------------------|------------------|-------------------|
D :-------------------|----5\-------5\---|----8\-------10\---|
A :3b(5)--------------|----5\-------5\---|----8\-------10\---|
E :----------1b-------|3---3\---3---3\---|3---6\---3----8\---|


                       grad. release
                       bend to 1/4
E :--------------------------------------------------------------|
B :--------------------------------------------8--------8------\-|
G :5b(7)//////////////r(6)-(6)-r5-5b-----------10b(12)--10b(12)\-|
D :--------------------------------------------------------------|
A :--------------------------------------------------------------|
E :--------------------------------------------------------------|
