Song: Truckin' Off Across The Sky (Cummings, Winter, Kale, McDougall, Peterson) Band: The Guess Who Album: Live At The Paramount (1972) Tabber: Nick Gray Email: [email protected] Tuning: Standard (EADGBE) This song is really easy because is so repetitive all you are doing for the whole song is basically a blues shuffle pattern riff the whole time. The song starts on the band jamming on the shuffle pattern blues in E until they start to play the song when the main riff comes in. Main Riff (2:06) |----------------------| |----------------------| |----------------------| |-9-9h11-11h12-12p11-11| |-7-7-7--7--7--7--7--7-| |----------------------| OR |----------------| |----------------| |----------------| |----------------| |-2-2h4-4h5-5p4-4| |-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0| The only other change in the song is when Burton sings the line "Truckin Off Across The Sky" which goes |---------| |---------| |2-2-2-2-4| |2-2-2-2-4| |0-0-0-0-2| |---------| Play the A chord four times over the line until Burton says the word "Across" then play the B chord, then play the main riff when he says "The Sky". During the last 4 lines (6:10) of the song play a E chord slowly building lowder when you hit the last line then hold it. Finish the song on a E chord
