    Mechanical Soul
    Intro: no bass
    CECI
    Don't smile, don't smile too much
    Don't accept, don't react
    Don't smile, don't smile too much
    Don't accept, don't be yourself
    They're gonna fire you...
    TOGETHER             CHORUS
    Anyway!              TOGETHER
    Smashy A chord before chorus When I walk through that door, people lie to everyone
    x 8 first time       They sold their souls long time ago, they don't have a heart, they don't need one because...

                                              When I'm here, I'm not myself, I need to keep my mind way
                                              Can you cut the bullshit please, can you cut the bullshit please because...
                                              I don't wanna hate you, I don't wanna hate you!
                                              Verse 2 (no bass)
                                              CECI
                                              Don't deny, don't speak your mind
                                              Don't accept, they will deny!
                                              But the only way, to survive,
                                              is to smile in a     x 4 this time
                                              TOGETHER             CHORUS
    I don't wanna hear it, I don't wanna hear it mechanical mode!  Breakdown: deal, deal, deal with it x 8

More Than Tabs

Hear every part, read it in the notation you prefer, and practise it at your own tempo

Audio Playback

Play the whole score back, or step through it note by note. Every track is synthesised from its own instrument, so a drum line sounds like drums and a piano part sounds like a piano.

Dual Notation

Switch any track between tablature, standard notation and note names — or show them stacked, aligned bar for bar. The same score, in whichever language you read fastest.

Practice Tools

Slow the tempo until a passage sits under your fingers, set the play range to loop the bar you keep missing, and mute the tracks you want to play yourself.

About This Score

Read it, hear it, and learn it — free, in the browser, with nothing to install.

It is written in 4/4 at 200 BPM. The arrangement runs 13 bars. We grade it beginner — it stays between frets 0 and 8. It is written as plain fretted notes, with no bends, slides or hammer-ons to learn first.
