Great song from a great band, criminal that this hasn't been put on
ultimate guitar yet. Hopefully the tab is okay for you. JK x
Recover - Dexters
Key - F major (acoustic version on youtube is a step down)
Intro
The first part of the intro is just an F chord which then alternates from
an F and E bass.
e -1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-I
b -1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-I
g -2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-I
d -3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-I
a -3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-I
e -1-1-1-1-0-1-0-1-I
The second part to the intro uses these chords;
F C Bb F (can repeat the alternative bass note whilst playing this chord,
listen to the song for the rhythm)
This is the intro melody.
F C Bb F
e -------8-8-----------8-8-------------8-8---------8-------I
b -10-10-----10---10-10-----10---10-10-----10-8-10---10-10-I
g ---------------------------------------------------------I
d ---------------------------------------------------------I
a ---------------------------------------------------------I
e ---------------------------------------------------------I
This can be played by two guitars or you can barre the chords so you can play the melody as
well.
