Sweet Electric Child
I downloaded this song from John's page ages ago and finally decided
to tab it. Unfortunatly, since it was downloaded, it isn't very
sharp, so it is hard to hear some chords due to the large amount of
bass. So until I get my hands on a better copy, I didn't tab the
solo, since in the version I have, you can't hear the solo very well.
But I did tab the rest out, so if you have a copy of the song, you
can now play along (that wasn't meant to rhyme)
Intro:
The intro riff continues throughout a good part of the song...listen
for when it appears...I warn you now, this riff is pretty
addictive...I've been playing it all day.
E----------------------------------------------------------------------------
B----2----------2-------2-----------2-------2---------2--------2-----------2-
G-2----2--0--2----0--2-----0--0--2----2--2----2--0--2----0--2-----0--0--2----
repeat throughout
There are a few main chords to the song...I don't know what a few of them
are, so I used different letters to label them, if you know what the names
are, you can e-mail me and I will change them and credit you.
E: 5 7 7 5 5 5
D: 3 5 5 3 3 3
X: 5 5 7 7 5 5
Y: 7 7 9 9 7 7
Z: 4 4 6 6 4 4
The pattern to the chords goes as so:
E E D X X E E E D X X Y Z
Repeat intro riff where nescessary.
Chorus:
The chorus part uses basically the same chords as the verse, but the
timing of the change is pretty interesting. I am not sure as to what
the words are to the song, but listen to the song for the changes.
The chord pattern is as follows:
E D E X
For the solo part (with the harmonica) play a E chord.
Solo:
The solo part for guitar comes in after awhile. It is basically the
same riff played 4 times. The riff is played something like so
(I am using a downloaded version which is very bassy):
G-9-9-7--7-----------------
D-----------7-5-7-5-5-5-3- the 4th time play D-9---
A-----------------------------
As for the rest of the song, repeat the chord patterns where they fall and
the intro riffs. When I get a better copy of the song, I will update the
tab.
