Three of a Perfect Pair By: King Crimson Album: Three of a Perfect Pair Bassist: Tony Levin -5h7- hammer on -7p5- pull off -5/7- slide up -7\5- slide down -5~- hold note -X- mute note |------------------------| time signature + + + + + + Can be lengthened to this |------------------------------------------------| + - + - + - + - + - + - + major beats (1,2,3,4,5,6) - ands (1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 &) Oh Fun! This song?s in 6/8 and 7/8! It?s also probably on a 5 string. During the chorus I?m going to put in the low ?B? string. If you only have a four string do not despair, because Tony Levin only plays low ?D?. You can play this song in drop ?D?, but it?s just ridiculously more difficult. Enjoy!
