Hey,
This is my attempt at tabbing 'Eye Pattern Blindness' by Pond, off of 'Beard, Wives,
Denim' (2012). Got it all by ear & by watching their live performance of the song on KEXP
radio (check it out on YouTube), so sorry for any mistake there might be.
I won't be covering the WHOLE song, there are a few parts that I didn't manage to pull
off, and some were covered by other tabs on UG.
Anyway, let's get down to business :
[Intro] (played multiple times)
Guitar 1 (Delayed & pitch shifted) :
E|----------------0~-------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------0~------------------------------------------------| G|----------------------11-------------------------------------------------------------| D|--11---------------------12-------------------------------------------------4~--4-4--| A|-----12--------------------14---------------14--14--14--14/16------------------------| E|-------14-----------------------------------------------------14\-2~-----------------| E|----------------------------| B|----------------------------| G|-----4--4--2--4~-----4------| D|------------------------2/--| A|--2~------------------------| E|----------------------------|
Guitar 2 (Clean guitar with chorus & reverb)(after Guitar 1's part is played a few times) :
E|--------------------------------| B|--------------------------------| G|------9h11-11-11p9--------------| D|-------------------11~----------| X 7 A|--------------------------------| E|--------------------------------| E|------------------------------| B|-10p9-------------------------| G|------9--9/11~----------------| D|------------------------------| A|------------------------------| E|------------------------------|

Both parts repeat for a while and then go back to intro.
Verse 2 chords (again thanks to AlMidd) :
F#m
Into the delay
Amaj
The sounds don't carry on into the days
GMaj7
All I've left to find
Cmaj
The parts are realizing all collecting thoughts
Bm
Blackness sit, awaits
Fmaj7
And slumber hits the rain outside my window
Gmaj7
With a brand new day
Amaj (build up)
I got some things I really have to find
Second time they play the 'Interlude', they skip the clean guitar part, and go right to
the distorted parts of the 'Interlude'.
Hope it helps, tell me your opinion in the comments! :)
