Artist: Tom Misch
Song: Beautiful Escape
Part of the song: Main Riff (not really the intro)
There already is a great tab for the chords of the whole song, so here I intend to have you rock that
amazing riff Tom wrote for the song. Mind you that this is the studio version. There is a live version on
YouTube where the whole song is 2 frets lower (original is in D#m, live is in C#m). I recommend checking out
the YouTube version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSVUYSaU17g) where you can slow down the song 50%.
This will help you get the timing right, which is very important to making the riff sound right!
Last note: in the studio version there is a dubbed guitar 1 octave higher playing the exact same riff.
