"I can cry, beg and whine..." (then back to the D5) the song stays with the F# and B with variations of those endings and fills above. the solo is in a F# blues (nothing hard really...just use a lot of artificial harmonics) the tune just kicks... i will post more tragically hip. any requests? wheat kings is C - G and the chorus is D...but i will post a few fills and tricks when i have time. john siambani siam0746@mach1.wlu.ca ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Song: Little Bones Album: Road Apples Tabbed By: Steve Proulx (waytoocoolforyou@hotmail.com) Chords: F#m - 2442XX A - X0222X B - X2444X Riff A: |--------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------| |-------4-4-4-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-1-1-1-1--| |--------4-4-4-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-0-2-2-2-2-| |-0--2---------------------------------| Riff B: |---------------------------------------------------| |--------------------0---0--------------------5(4)--| |----------------------2-----2---4---4------------4-| |-2---4---4----2-(4)---------2---4-X-4---2/4--------| |-2---4-X-4------------------0---2-X-2--------------| |-0---2-X-2-----------------------------------------| Riff C: |---------------------------0-----0-------------------| |-3---3---3-------------------------------------------| |-2---2---2--------------2-----1----------------------| |-0---0---0--------------------------2------------2-4-| |-------------------------------------------2-(4)-----| |-----------------------------------------------------| Riff D: |---0---0---0---0------------------------| |----------------------------------------| |-2---1----------------------------------| |---------4---2---------2---4(2)---------| |------------------2(4)----------4-------| |----------------------------------2-----| Riff E: |---------------| |------0-----0--| |----2---2------| |--4------------| |---------------| |---------------| |----------------| |-5--4--0--------| |----------2---2-| |----------------| |----------------| |----------------| Intro: Riff A X2 Riff A & Riff B X2 Riff A It gets so sticky down here Better butter your cue-finger up It's the start of another new year Better call the newspaper up F#m 2.50 for an eyeball A B And a buck and a half for a beer F#m Happy hour, happy hour B Happy hour is here Riff A & Riff B X2 Riff A F#m The long days of Shockley are gone B So is football Kenedy style F# Famous last words taken all wrong B Wind up on the very same pile F#m 2.50 for an eyeball A B And a buck and a half for a year F#m Happy hour, happy hour B Happy hour is here Riff C I can cry, beg and wine t'every Rebel I find Riff C Just to give me a line I could use to describe Riff B They'd say, "Baby eat this chicken slow It's full of all them little bones."
