Tabbed by Neil Hillen, [email protected] When I tabbbed it out I finished it, forgot to save it repeatedly and then for a big finale, made the computer crash. I also noticed the second time that there are parallels between the second verse bit and Jimi Hendrix' (or should I say Noel Redding's) Little Miss Strange intro, but no one else will, so I'll shut up. Intro; try a G root with your thumb ---------3----------------|------------------------------------------| -3-------3--3----5--5--5--|------------------------------------------| -3h5--------3h5--5--5--5--|------------------------------------------| -5----5-----5----5--5--5--|------------------------------------------| --------------------------|------------------------------------------| --------------------------|------------------------------------------| Verse; again root notes are a virtue etc.. --1----1--1--1--|----------------|----------------|-----------| --2h3--3--3--3--|--4h5--5--5--5--|--3----3--3--3--|--5--------| ----------------|--5----5--5--5--|--3h4--4--4--4--|--5--------| ----------------|----------------|----------------|-----------| ----------------|----------------|----------------|-----------| ----------------|----------------|----------------|-----------| then or ----------------------|--------------|--------------------------| ----------------------|--3--6--5--3--|--------------------------| ----------------------|--4--7--5--4--|--------------------------| ----------0--3--2--0--|--5--5--5--5--|--------------------------| ----------2--5--3--2--|--------------|--------------------------| ----------3--3--3--3--|--------------|--------------------------| you could have chords..... ---1--0--3--||--------3--||---------------------| ---3--1--3--||--6--5--3--||---------------------| ---0--0--0--||--7--5--4--||---------------------| ---0--0--0--||--5--5--5--||---------------------| ---2--2--2--||--5--3--5--||---------------------| ---3--3--3--||-----3--3--||---------------------| Chorus --1--------------------|----------------------| --1--------------------|----------------------| --2--------5-----5-----|-8--------7-----------| --3--------5-----------|-8--------8-----8-----| --3--1--2--3--3-----3--|-6--------8-----------| --1--------------------|----4--5--6--6-----6--| ------------------------------| ------------------------------| --------0----2--------2p0--0--| --------1h2--2--------2----2--| --3--3--3----3--3--3--3----3--| ------------------------------| etc..... |-----------------------|--3-------------| |-----------1--1--1--1--|--3-------------| |-----------3--3--3--3--|--4-------------| |-----------2--2--2--2--|--5-------------| |-----------3--3--3--3--|--5-------------| |-----------------------|--3-------------| chord things (try G roots) ------------------|-----------------------------------------------| ------------------|-----------------------------------------------| ------------------|-----------------------------------------------| 2--3--3--3--3--5--|-----------------------------------------------| 3--5--5--5--5--7--|-----------------------------------------------| ------------------|-----------------------------------------------| I love this, pentatonics, arpeggios...... not a E7#9 to be seen.
