Joe tab by The Cranberries
Guitar Tab
Title : Joe Artist : Cranberries Album : To The Faithful Departed Tabbed By: Rav aka AikHow Email : redalert159@hotmail.com which has been around for like 3-4 years? Anyway, was playing the CD on my long bus ride home when I suddenly felt that this's a god damm nice song. When I reached home, I immediately look for the tab. Although I found 1 but it was not correct. No ownership is found in the tab but here is it, just in case you wanna compare - C - C - Am - Em. So I spent around 2 hours tabbing this one out from scratch. Enjoy.
Rhythm chords are in this manner -
F - F - Dm - C
(Repeated through the whole song - Cranberries's trademark)
Verse:
F F Dm C
There was...............so lonely (Away)
F F Dm C
Remember................a Friday. (Away)
Intro/Verse:
F F Dm C
E-|--------1-----------1-----------1-----------0--------|

G-|----2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---0-------0----|
D-|--3-----------3-----------0-----------2--------------|

E-|-1--1---------------+-1----1-------------------------|

The chorus is a bit tricky, you must listen to the song
carefully to get the timing. The rhythm chords is still
the same but the lead guitar is holding F throughout.
It may sound difficult performing this part but basically
you strum the F chord from your D to High-E before
plucking the "F" and "C" notes. Well, the chorus tab
might not be 100% correct but it is definitely close.
- CD Timing for the first chorus -
00:58 - Start of chorus
00:59 - Start of the F strum
01:01 - Start of the F strum
01:03 - Start of the F strum
01:05 - Start of the F strum
As you can see its at ABOUT a 2 sec interval.
You should get the rhythm by now, if you can't, listen
to this part a few times.

That's basically all to this song. Simple and nice.
Anyone care to tab out the bass?
