Tool, The Patient.
Tabbed by John, [email protected].
hey, this song is by Tool off of their new cd
Lateralus. it’s a really good song I might add.
Adam Jones plays it on a Gibson Les Paul, so that’s
where you hear the smoothness of it’s sound. well,
anyway, here’s the tab. this is just the verse and
the chorus. I don’t know the bridge. sorry.it’s not
that hard to learn.
Intro/verse (not the song before it, just what’s
played on track 3) all of this is palm muted.

This next part is played over what’s already going on.
Adam uses a wah wah here. V means pull wah pedal up
with your heal,^ means push it down with your toes.
>means let ring.
