Ceremony - Galaxie 500 Tabbed by: nickelflip E-mail: [email protected] Tuning: Standard, Capo 3rd fret. All of the notes in this song are written relative to the capo on the 3rd fret. The capo becomes the nut, so if the tab says fret 5, for example, you play what would normally be called fret 8 without the capo.

Play around with those solo riffs a bit, improvise as much or as little as you like. This is almost exactly how Dean Wareham plays it live. If you have some corrections or more solo riffs he throws in that I left out, please shoot me an email and I'll fix it. Thanks! ************************************ | b Bend | br Bend release | pb Pre-bend | h Hammer-on | / Slide up ************************************
