As I Lay Dying The Sound of Truth (guitar cover)
I was first introduced to this song by some guy talking trash about the simplicity of the songs Ive been covering. It turns out that I really like this song (and the band), so I decided to do my own version The song is not terribly difficult, but there are some tricky parts. There is a very fast pulloff run in the chorus that I find tough to get clean, and other parts require very steady fast alternate picking, which is one of my weaknesses. Also, there is quite a bit of finger tapping in the song, so I had to break my bad habit of tapping with my index finger. After several painful days of tapping with my middle finger, I finally developed a callus The solo involves a sweep tap, which is a technique I had never attempted before learning this song. Its a bit sloppy in places, but I m tired of practicing the song over and over again (and so is my wife ), so here it is I transcribed it by ear, and my Guitar Pro file is now available on my website (see link below).
