Pain Of Salvation - Linoleum

Words and music by Daniel Gildenlöw
Transcribed by Travis Lausch

Guitars are seven-strings tuned to A E A D G B E (low to high)

This song is really more about groove than precision. Keep your playing loose.

Intro:

EIN! ZWEI! DREI!

Verse 1:
  (Though it's hard to represent in ASCII tab, this figure is played in a manner where
starts on an eighth note rest)

Chorus:

Alright, this is a troublesome part for me because of the layering. Obviously, the main
riff of the song IS played. But there's also that ascending

progression that I can't really pick out. I'm arranging it here as if Daniel is playing
along with the main riff, but it could be that there are power chords in the

background, or that the progression is only outlined on bass while guitars keep playing
main riff unaltered, or it could even be Johan doing the outlining. I'm

basing finger positions on a live video.

                            ^ flutter wah pedal. In music video, Daniel is touching the string
                             at various places without producing any harmonics which is something
                              I have seen him do in live videos during songs like
                              so he really
                              could be doing that too, but I'm sticking with wah since 
                              sounds more
                              like what he's doing, and it's easier to perform that way
