BLACKBERRY SONG BY KURT VILE OFF OF "CHILDISH PRODIGY" 2009 MATADOR RECORDS this tab is pretty rough, just an outline of the song.. more based off live versions. **TUNING** low to high G-G-C-G-B-E tune the A string down a whole step to G. tune the low E up one and a half steps to G. tune the D string down one step to C. *NOTE* there is capo on the 1st fret for this one intro riff - (if you can, this sounds good looped) E------------3---------------| B------3/5---------5---------| G-0------------0-------------| D----------------------------| A----------------------------| E----------------------------| riff #1 E-3\2-----0----------------| B----------------3---------| G------0-------------0-----| D-0----------0-------------| A--------------------------| E--------------------------| riff #2 - picking this part is tricky.. basically when the bar starts hit the D string, but when going through the second time hit the D after you slide to the 5th fret E-0------------0--------0-------------| B-3/5----------3--------3/------------| G-------0-----------0-----------------| D-0---------0-------------------------| A-------------------------------------| E-------------------------------------| riff #1 leads into this part E-------------------------------| B-------------------------------| G-4---4--------2----------------| D-----4-------------2-----------| A-4--------2--------------------| E-------------------------------| go back into #2 from here **for riff #2 he does 2 variations of it at different parts of the song** the FIRST time the SECOND time E-3/5----------3------3---------|--5/7------------5-------5/--------------| B-3/5----------3------3/--------|--3/5------------3-------3/--------------| G-------0----------0------------|--------0-----------0--------------------| D-0---------0-------------------|-0----------0----------------------------| A-------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| E-------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| play riff #2 for the verses which leads into this part E-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-----------------------0-----------------------------------------------------| G-7----------7----------0------------0---------2-------------2----------------| D------7----------7----------0------------0---------2------------2------------| A-7--------7------------0---------0------------2----------2-------------------| E-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| go back into riff #2 for another verse bridge part - not exactly sure how this part goes E------------------------------------------0------------0--------------------------| B---------3---------------------3h5------------5-----------5-----------------------| G---------------0------------------------------------------------------------------| D-----4------------4-------4---------4------------4-----------4--------------------| A--5---------5---------5-------5-----------5------------5--------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E--5p0--------5p0----------5p0-------------------------| B--------3------------3--------------3-----------------| G------------------------------------------------------| D-----------4-------------4--------------4-------------| A--5------------5--------------5-----------------------| E------------------------------------------------------| go back into the main riff and play a verse once more for the end.. sorry if this is confusing, definitely listen to the song for the structure
