You Want A Battle? (Here's A War) - Bullet For My Valentine - Venom
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: randomdemon11

Tuning: Drop C
Pace: 130 bpm
Hi, guys! This has proved one of the more popular songs off the Venom album; I bet it relates to a lot
of people of varying degrees. This song is simple and powerful and deserves the appeal it's receiving.
I feel like even though it does not have a solo and nothing is too technical, it is still one crowd pleasing
song. Even Matt Tuck said he put a lot of emotional investment into this song because of his personal
experiences. It's so good.
I learned this song by ear (with the help of a tab or two from the internet).
The timings shown are for the YouTube official music video, though I'm sure they'll be relatively accurate for
other versions, such as Spotify or other videos. For help with timing, the quavers of each bar are represented
by the "1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &". Side note: some of the sections have had the spacing between
the "1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &" modified to accommodate for those pesky double digit frets and keep
everything in line. Rhythm is important. For
further guidance, I've also added lyrics alongside some of the sections, so you don't lose track of where you
are.
I've put the guitar parts next to each other in their relative sections rather than tabbing all of guitar 1 and
then all of guitar 2 so it'll be easier to see what's going on when. Sometimes, there's an additional
guitar (Guitars 3) for the extra melodies introduced. This is a recorded guitar and was laid on top of
Matt and Padge's guitars.
Enjoy the tab!
Intro (0:00 - 0:43)
Verse 1 (0:43 - 1:15)
Chorus (1:15 - 1:36)
Pre-Verse (1:36 - 1:45)
Verse 2 (1:45 - 2:17)
Chorus (2:17 - 2:39)
Bridge (2:39 - 3:33)
Final Chorus (3:33 - 3:55)
Outro (3:55 - 4:10)
Honourable mentions: 1:09 - The worst sight to befall on our sorry eyes... Never mind the abuse.
1:20 - Tough guy wife beater starts slow by flicking food... made me lol.
1:56 - Sexy, dark look receives my approval. And I'm a straight male.
2:14 - Do it.
4:04 - Badass mode engaged
4:13 - Badass mode continued to full effect
4:20 - AYYYYYYY. (Also, you dead, bitch)
Padge also looks quite sexy in multiple shots, hair blowing & shit.
Unfortunately, Moose and Jamie do not receive a lot of camera time. Get to it,
cameramen... all the members need to be appreciated!
*Serious note - I am humourous about this, but of course, I strongly disagree with any form of abuse within the
family. Please do not be offended.

Guitar 2
It's up to you here how you want to play it. It's played with legato, so I like to tap the 7 on the
7-5-3-5 then hammer on the 4-2-0-2, 5-4-2-4 and 7-5-4-5 patterns without picking any of the first notes.

You want a battle? HERE'S A WAR!!
Outro (3:55 - 4:10)
Guitars 1, 2 and 3 all repeat their respective parts of the intro. Difference is, there's a halt in there. I'm
sure you'll be able to work out where it is and how long it lasts before you resume riffing. :P (Hint: It's at
4:03, when Matt does the aggressive hand-across-throat motion in the music video. He really got into that.)
