Bheegi Bheegi from Gangster Performed by James and band By Sanjeev George and Thomas George, Bangalore, India This track is an amazing song in the movie. If we aren’t wrong, 3 guitars have been used in the song. One plays all the acoustic arpeggios, One the electric arpeggios and all the power chords with distortion, and the last plays all the leads, with some unique sort of distortion. Please listen to the song for understanding the tab better. There seems to be a lot of and bend-release throughout the song. Symbols used in this tab (note carefully): | s slide up or down as required | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ let ring | v vibrato Chords used Em G F E5 C5 B5 D5
