The Patient by Tool
Tabbed by Matt M.([email protected])

Dropped D tuning
I almost gave up trying to tab this song

Okay so i don't know the whole song so this is pretty much the first parts
thanks to:eddevo for helping with the tab

This tab might be a little out of order
intro:Pm
d|---0-2---0-2---2---2|
a|-------------3---0--|
D|-3-----0------------|

little break thing:Pm
d|---------2-|
a|-0-3-5-0---|
D|-----------|

verse:Pm
d|---0-2---0-2---2---2|
a|-------------3---0--|
D|-3-----0------------|

Then play the little break thing again

Little break thing with something different:
Pm.
d|-0-3-5-0-7-|
a|-0-3-5-0-7-|
D|-----------|

when distortion comes in play this about 4x
                 pm---|
d|--3--0--5--7----7777---
a|--3--0--5--7----7777---
d|--3--0--5--7----7777---

g|--5-----|Play this is few times then play again with pinch harmonics
d|7---5-7-|
a|--------|
D|--------|

"...by now.  And I still may(4 or so times)"
d|-7-7-7-7--5-5-----0-0-0-0--3-3
a|-7-7-7-7--5-5-----0-0-0-0--3-3
d|-7-7-7-7--5-5-----0-0-0-0--3-3

After the second time the break is done, this comes after it...
Repeat 4 or so times
d|--------------------------------
a|--0-7-0-3-5-0-7-5-3-5-0
d|-------------------------------

And then after a short intermission with pinch harmonics...
(after "and I still may...[sigh]...I still may")
                                (4x)
d|0-3-5---7--|--3-5---7|
a|0-3-5---7--|--3-5---7|
d|0-3-5---7--|--3-5---7|

And then something in palm mute that I still don't understand

Then without palm mute, I think it goes...
(4X)
d|6-x-3-3----|
a|6-x-3-3----|
d|6-x-3-3----|


d|------0----|-------------
a|---2----0-2|-2-5-0-2-----
d|-----------|-------------
