Title: Temptation Intro             -Only one on the net! GUARANTEE  
Artist: The Tea Party                              
Album: Transmission         (The intro is actually played on a Saz
Date: July 26th 2002         I just tabbed it for an acoustic guitar)
Composed by : Jeff Martin
Tabbed by: Robert Breen
Tuning: For the intro- open Gb5   low to high (Db, Gb, Db, Gb, Gb, Db)
        Remainder- E B E G B E (not important here though

The intro i am almost positive is played on the saz, jeff said in an interview he uses
the saz in temptation but he never said where so im guessin the intro and the verse.

P.S Listen to the song for timing aand use alot of trill strumming ie(strum fast)

THIS IS AS CLOSE AS I COULD GET IT SO IF YOU DONT LIKE IT GO TO HELL MAN CAUSE I NEVER SEEN 
IT TABBED YET!!

tabbed by matt (bigben@infobahnos.com) IĀ¹ve seen them play this song live on television a couple of times so IĀ¹ll tab out some live parts as well as the one (or two) parts on the album. Main Riff
E-------------------B-------------------G-------------------D-------------------A-------------------E-2-0-2-0-2-0-2-0-2-
You play this riff at the beginning and when Jeff screams Ā³TEMPTATION!Ā² Bridge Riff We exist..........
E-------------------B-------------------G-------------------D-------------------A-------------------E--3---3---3---3----
This riff is followed by the main riff. IĀ¹m not sure if this could be a synth but this it what it sounds like. Verse Riff (Live)
E-----0h3-2h3-2p0---B-------------------G-3h4---------------D-------------------A-------------------E-------------------
I think that this is played on a synth on the album version but when they play it live Jeff plays this. Right before the interlude, it getĀ¹s quieter and Jeff plays this with a delay(?) as written above a couple of times, and then an octave up a couple of times. Interlude (live) Jeff messes around with the main riff for a bit, does several rhythm variations. Solo (live)
E-----0h3-2h3-2p0-----0h3-2h3-2p0-----------------B---------------------------------3p0-2p0-3p0-2p0-G-3h4-------------3h4-----------------------------D-------------------------------------------------A-------------------------------------------------E-------------------------------------------------
Jeff plays this twice with the wah pedal and then fools around with one of his exotic scales based around these notes. He then plays this a couple of times:
E--------------------------B--------------------------G-3-4-4b6r4-3--4-6-6b7r6-4-D--------------------------A--------------------------E--------------------------
ItĀ¹s a pretty wicked song live. They stretch it from about two and a half minutes (without the acoustic beginning) to about five and a half minutes when live. ThereĀ¹s other parts I might have heard but they change it a lot live so IĀ¹ve given you the basic structure. It rocks! have fun with this -matt
