Band: Operation Ivy Song: Vulnerability Album: Energy (1989) Tuning: Standard E A D G B E Okay, this is one of my favorite Op Ivy songs and I've seen only a few tabs for this great one so I decided to write my own tab for that great main riff in that song 'cause the rest of the song's quiet easy.... I know that my tab for that riff's not right - And I think nobody except Tim know how to play that unique guitar riff right - But I think it's close enough... | Version #1 e|----------------------------|--------------------------| B|----------------------------|--------------------------| G|----------------------------|--------------------------| D|-----44---77---------4-7----|--------------------------| A|-----55-5-55-5-4-4-7-5-5----|----444-7^--2-5-5-4-5-----| E|---------------5-5-5---5----|----555-5^--3-3-----------| | Version #2 e|----------------------------|--------------------------| B|----------------------------|--------------------------| G|----------------------------|--------------------------| D|-----444-7-77-------4-7-----|--------------------------| A|-----555-5-55-4-4-7-5-5-----|----444-7-77-2-5-5-4-5----| E|--------------5-5-5---------|----555-5-55-3-3-0-0-0----| So here we have 2 version for that riff: Version #1 - The "right" one which is kinda hard to play, and Version #2 - The "easy" one which is kinda easier to play and which also sound close to the "right" one - It's you choice which you wanna play! So let me tell you something about how to play it... Well, you have to play the riff (damn fuckin') fast. I mean it! Damn fuckin' fast! It's not very easy to play it so fast and you also have to bend a chord (^) at the second part of the song. Play the riff with distortion - I mean it! Distortion on the highes level!The second version is easy enough, so I think that I don't have to say something to this... For the beginning I would chose the easy one and letter figure out the hard one which is kinda right - You just have to practice a lot that's all! So please keep it on and enjoy the sound of Operation Ivy...
