From swede@email.unc.edu Sun May 4 11:18:20 1997 >From Fred Lidskog (It's Good) To Be Free, written by Noel Gallagher, performed by Oasis. Song can be found on the "Whatever" single. Chords used: Em (022000) C (x32010) C2 (x35553) D (xx0232) D2 (x57775) D/F# (2x0232) A (x02220) Am (x02210)
NOTE: What you've got in this song is one guitar playing each chord with distortion, another guitar with a sort of fuzzy, muffled effect picking the strings separately for each chord, and a third guitar doing the solos and the fills with heavy distortion. Anyways, the second guitar that's picking the strings separately plays an "Em7" (022030) while the first guitar is plays an "Em", and the second guitar also plays a "Cadd9" (x32030) while the 1st guitar plays the "C"s in the song. Listen to the song to hear the pattern at which the 2nd guitar is picking the strings. Intro ----- Tab Key: b = bend (7b8 means bend the string at the 7th fret to make the note that the string would make if played at the 8th fret with no bend) r = release bend s = slide / = a slower slide h = hammer on p = pull off ^ = vibrate the note * = Artificial Harmonic (a.k.a. "scream"). Done by picking the string and your index finger brushing against the string at the same time as the pick.
