Here are tabs for the two main riffs in "Simple," from Collective Soul's latest album. They are real close, but not quite perfect. If anyone has some suggestions and/or corrections, please post! First riff: E |----------------------------------------------- B |----------------------------------------------- G |-----------------------------------(second time) D |--2---2---------------------2----------(5)----- A |--2---2---7-p-0---2-h-5-p-2---0-0-h-2-h-5------ E |--0---0----------------------------------------
Second riff: E |--2-------------------------------------------x--x- B |--2-------------------------------------------x--x- G |--0-----2-------------------------------2-----x--x- D |--0-----2-------------------------------2--2--x--x- A |--2-----0----------7-p-5-p-0------------0--2--x--x- E |--3------------0-0-----------3bb-p-0-0-----0--x--x- Tablature explanation --------------------- B Full Bend b 1/2 Bend bb 1/4 Bend h Hammer-on p Pull-off x left-hand muted "scratch" strum this is what i've figured out for the opening riffs for simple and it sounds pretty darn close E|------------------------------------------------------ B|------------------------------------------------------ G|------------------------------------------------------ D|------------------------------------------------------ A|---------7--------5--0--7--0-----------5-------------- E|---0--0-----5--7--------------0--5--7----------------- 2nd time play D|--5-- at the end instead of A|--5--
