ARTIST: Dada
TUNING: Standard (Low to High: E A D G B E)
CAPO: 2nd Fret
===================================================================
== INTRODUCTORY NOTES ==
===================================================================
This song can be played without a capo, but I found it sounds
better (and more like the recording) with a capo on the 2nd fret.
All chord names and forms in this tab are relative to the second
fret. In other words, any chord shown as "G" in this tab is really
an "A", etc.
The main riff (shown in the reference section) can either be played
on a second guitar, or (if using one guitar) while simultaneously
playing the "G" chord. Every time the riff and "G" are both
playing, the chord has been represented as "G*". Otherwise,
variations within the "G" chord structure should be played when the
chord is just marked "G" (improvise!).
Throughout the whole song (mostly the verses), guitar chords aren't
necessarily being played, but I have indicated the implied chord
structure behind every section.
