--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE BRIDGE SONG - Dishwalla --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Kevin Buzby - 10 March 2005 E-mail: kjlee@bu.edu AIM SN: kjlee2112 Tuning: EADGBe (Standard 440Mhz) Notes: This song was requested of me to be done--about three weeks ago I promised it to be done that weekend, so I apologize, I had a lot of school stuff goin on. I didn't know it, but it wasn't hard at all. It is one of those sweet, simple songs that Dishwalla have a knack for. It's pretty straight forward, but if there are questions, ask away. Chord key: (Quick note: The Am-Asus2-Am and D-Dsus4-D are just hammers-on and pull-offs to those middle chords for accentuation--again, a Dishwalla trait.) G (320003@1) D/F# (200232@1)Em7 C (x32010@1) Am (x02210@1) Asus2 (x02200@1) D (xx0232@1) Dsus4|-3-----2-----0-----0-----0-----0-----2-----3-| (xx0233@1)|-3-----3-----3-----1-----1-----0-----3-----3-| |-0-----2-----0-----0-----2-----2-----2-----2-| |-0-----0-----2-----2-----2-----2-----0-----0-| |-2-----0-----2-----3-----0-----0-------------| |-3-----2-----0-----x-----x-----x-------------| Riff: (This is the riff played over the second choruses--use a slide-- with lots of reverb and some distortion to get that nice legato feel. Again, use your ears, and you'll figure out which part to use where. It's really basic.) |---------------------|--------------------------------------------| |---------------------|--------------------------------------------| |---------------------|--------------------------------------------| |-(7)///10\(9)-9\7-|-(7)////10\(9)////12/////////////////(24)--| |---------------------|--------------------------------------------| |---------------------|--------------------------------------------| Intro: G-D/F#-Em7 x2 (listen for the timing--it's just a basic strumming pattern anyways, with just one acoustic strumming and one doubling or providing arpeggios to make the sound sound fuller. I'm not going to bother tabbing any of the main chords because they are easy to pick up on. This is a good 'first song' to learn.)

This isn't exact. He's really just fingerpicking the chords apart within the key. Just arpeggiate really, and you'll get what they are trying to accomplish here. Play the notes in () after the first time he starts playing this passage.) |--------5-----3-----3---------------------------| |-------(3)---(3)---(3)--------3-----------------| |----0-----0-----0-----0---------0-----0---------| |------0-----0-----0-----2p0h2-----2/4---42-----| |--------------------------------------------2---| |--3-------------------------------------------0-| G (320003@1) D/F# (200232@1)Em7 I don't know where to go fin.
