Tuning: DADDAD
From the Soul Coughing album El Oso [1998]
The DADDAD tuning is what M Doughty used predominantly in the later years of SC
(1998-2000) and in his solo career into today (though as of 2012 he'll transpose this tuning
into CGCCGC due to his voice changing as he gets near his late 40s....)

Transposed myself! Note: Roni Size's 1998 song "Visiting Angels" has a really similar
riff. SC and Roni were friends, too. Visiting Angels came out after.
Any questions or comments? Any more SC you'd love to see tabbed? I love the cough.
willing to trade bootlegs, I have over 50 that are unavailible on the internet (yet,
today is 7 December 2013. They'll likely be posted by me soon on the soul coughing portal of
archive.org! stay tuned, friends!)
minor formatting edits for clarity done on 27 January 2015. Check out the archive.org portal for SC, I've put up some bootlegs, however not as many as I'd initially had liked to by now so thanks for checking it and digging SC.
