Transistor OST Guitar Tabs

[SeaLions]

Hello! I want to start a bit of a group project to get chords and tabs for all (or most) of the music in this game. Contribute if you can!

I am by no means a good guitar player, so if any of these tabs are wrong please tell me with your corrections.

I'll start with Paper Boats:

Verse:
Dm////, F////, C////, A////

Chorus [Thanks to Skaijo]:
B♭//// ,A//// ,F//// ,F////
B♭////, E////, Am///, A////

Dsus2b5 looks like xx0130
E6sus4addb9 looks like xx2221

Bridge [repeat]:
---10------9------14------12--------
---10-----10-----10------12--------
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------

Main melody, piano:
e -10---------9---------7--------6---9----
B ------8~-------7~-------6~------------- repeat
G -7----------6---------4--------3---6----

Piano part during chorus (not sure):
e ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
B -7--10-------7------------------------7---10--------7------------------ 1st time
G -----------9-------7---9----6---7---------------9----------7--9--6----

e --------------------------------------------------------------------------
B -7--10-------7------------------------7---10--------7----------------- 2nd time
G -----------9-------7---9----6---7---------------9---------7---6------

Then bridge with power chords:

___B5_B5_B5___E5_F#5__

D -9~---9~---9~-----------------

___B5_B5_B5___E5_С#5__
G ---------------------9~--6~-----

and repeat bridge again.

Something like that in the end (piano):

It would be cool to get Bass tabs as well ! There were really cool bass lines in a few songs.

Sadly I'm awful at bass, but if anyone isn't and wants to help out that would be awesome

[SeaLions]

In Circles:
Verse + Chorus:
D, F#, B, then a werid chord that looks like ths:
-------------------
---2--------------
---3--------------
-(mute)--------
---1--------------
-------------------
Not sure what this would be called :)

Bridge [power chords]:
---------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------
---4---------------------9----7------------
---4-----[repeats]-----9----7-------------
---2----------------------7----5------------
----------------------------------------------

Finally, if you want to get super fancy this is the piano part during the chorus on guitar:
-----------------------------------------------------------
-7----10------7-----------------------------------------
------------9-------7----9----6----7------------------

For In Circles the majority of the song is:

D6 D6sus4

Em Em6

These four chords played as a four part sequence carries most of the song.

Suggesting this modification:

Verse (sounds good to me!):
Dm//// F////
C//// A////

Chorus
B♭////
A////
F////
F////

B♭////, Dsus2b5////,
A///, E6sus4addb9//, A//

Dsus2b5 looks like xx0130
E6sus4addb9 looks like xx2221

[SeaLions]

Thanks for your modifications! I've edited my original post with your changes, it sounds good.

Em Em6

I've been trying this out for a bit now, and although it does sound better than my original suggestion I think it is still not quite accurate. I've been playing a bit of a mix that seems to sound good to me, I'm curious to know your thoughts:

D6, F#/D , B, Em6

I'm afriad I can only replicate the top four strings on a guitar sense I'm on a baritone uke (DGBE tuning, same as the last four on a guitar) so I can't hit F#/D unfortunately. I tried it out on a lower octave but it sounded off. Then again, this may be why my original proposal sounded off to you too, lemme try a different notation:

In Cirlces has a weird time signature btw, 3 beats then 2 beats per measure or something. Whatev, might be sleepy:

D6 xx0402 ///
D6sus4 xx0403 //

Em xx2000 ///
Em6 xx2020 //

That sounds right, but it also seems to be somewhat lacking. Sound isn't as big as it could be, y'know? I'll look more into it, maybe someone else will join with some ideas?
Also, I think the time signature is 5/4 in the verse and 6/4 in the chorus and bridge.

Thanks! You've got a good ear.

Yeah, the issue with my uke is that I know the chords are constantly descending but my tone only goes down so far with just four strings. On a piano, I think I'd play Bm Em and then Bm open, Em open as I work my way down to the lower notes.

[SeaLions]

Ok I've been messing around with it for a little while, seems like D6 (x54430), F#/D, B, then some form of B♭ seems to be the best I can do. This song is very strange and cool, Darren Korb did a great job on it.
