Guitar Tab

Dave Matthews, Where are you Going -- Acoustic
As Tabbed By Christopher Owens
clo__@hotmail.com

In many of Dave Matthew's songs, the guitar seems to play one
part throughout the song, and the melody is provided by the
bass. This can be a bummer if you're performing solo, esp.
on an acoustic.

First, TUNE your 1st string (high e) down to an a -- I find it
easiest to tune to a harmonic on the 12th fret of the 5th (A)
string. This gets rid of having to deal with muting the e string
through the entire song -- it provides a nice, mellow sound.

So your tuning is:
   a|
   B|
   G|
   D|
   A|
   E|
Intro & Verse

Dsus2     Dsus2/G     Dsus2/B     Dsus2/A.    Many x

(The intro hammers on the G string --0h2---)
Pick the bass note DISTINCTLY, then just strum them in.

CHORUS ("I am no Superman...")

Dsus2     C        Bm      Bb      3x

(See chord voicings below)
These chord voicings have a nice mellow sound.

CHORUS COT'D ("But I do know one thing...."

Dsus2     C      Dsus2        Dsus2

"After all, where you go...."

C         C          C        Dsus2 ......

SAX SOLO

If you're playing this solo / acoustic, you probably won't
want to put this in here, but here's what I can catch: It's
a descending F# major scale, I think. That translates to:

e|:-8s14s12-12-11-9 something something-2s3-2s3,-2-3-5-7-8
Repeat, end with                                 2-3-5-7-8-10

But that's for a high e-string, which we don't have in this
tuning. Try it on your B-string.

Enjoy!
