---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAB: Day Tripper
MUSIC BY: The Beatles (Released as a Single)
TABBED BY: Eggman

This is that note that seems to appear before every tab found on the
Internet telling you how good the song is ...like you didn't know!
I know that Riff 3 isn't exactly right and probably doesn't strum the
C# and B chords, but if you're playing on your own then it sounds ok!
Alternatively, you could carry the pattern of the first part of the
riff throughout.
