THE BLACK CROWES STING ME well, for starters it's in open G (surprised?) lemme see here. . . ----------------------------------| -----------------------1-0--0-1---| -----------3^0---6s5-0-0-0--0-0---| ----3^5----------------2-0--0-2---| ---------0-----0------------------| ----------------------------------| the rhythm may be off. probably is actually. anyways. . .that's the main riff at the begining. also, there's that descending part he does after the riff in the begining it's just F to E to G. the thing this song is you can's really play it wrong. just jam it out. i usually plat octaves on the 6 and 4 you'll figure it out. the chorus is like this Can ya sting meeeeeeetc. . . -0-----3------5------------| -0-----3------6------------| -0-----3------5------------| -0-----3------7------------| -0-----3------5------------| ---------------------------| right to my rotten bones ---5---5--5----5------0------| ---5---5--5----5------0------| ---5---5--5----5------0------| ---5---5--5----5------0------| ---5---5--5----5------0------| -----------------------------| the just before the solo, vamp a little bit in G using a dominant seventh and a flatted third (F and Bflat you got lost for a second there) then the solo is just the chorus progression. and that very funky riff under that next verse (oooh c'mon my sweet little thang. . .) is like this. . . ---------------------| ---3^----------------| ---3^----------------| -------5-3-5-3-5-----| ---------------------| ---------------------| oh yeah, i forgot about this part before, sorry. i don't mean to sound bitter. . . -5------5-------------0--------| -6------5-------------0--------| -5------5-------------0--------| -7------5-------------0--------| -5------5-------------0--------| -------------------------------| that should be it. hope it helps! good luck Sean T.
