------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yakety Sax - Benny Hill ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed By : Poliwhirl e-mail: schack-93@hotmail.com Tuning: Normal [GDAE] Hello bass players who likes funny songs! :) This is actually my first tab so it might be a bit confusing. But I've tried to make it understandable and satisfying. I've tabbed it after the Benny Hill version on YouTube which is the first to come up when you type in Benny Hill. If you have another version or just want to jam to it just take the parts that match. During the bridges no bass is playing but if you want you could always try some of the different parts and see which ones fit. The bass is playing a simple beat which is 8 beat per measure. The other notes during fills should be played faster and they differ between the different verses. How the parts are played: ------------------------ Verse 1 Verse 2 Chorus Bridge (No bass) Verse 3 Bridge (No bass) Verse 4 Verse 2 No bass for 2 measures Special Chorus Verse 4 First measure of Verse ------------------------ Repeat as many times you can and want X = Basic beat, 8 per measure Verse 1 G|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| D|---6-------6-------6-------6--------|---6-------6-------8-------8-------5-----| A|-------6-------6-------6-------6----|-------6-------6-------6-------6-8-------| E|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | G|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| D|---6--------------------------------|---6-------6-------6-------6-------------| A|-------6-------6---4-------4---4----|-------6-------6-------6-----------------| E|-----------4-----------4------------|-----------------------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | Verse 2 G|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| D|---6-------6-------6-------6--------|---6-------6-------8-------8-------------| A|-------6-------6-------6-------6----|-------6-------6-------6-------6---------| E|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | G|-----------------------------------------|------------------------------------| D|---6--------------------------------3----|---6-------6-------6-------6--------| A|-------6------------3---4-------4--------|-------6-------6-------6------------| E|-----------4--4--6----------4------------|------------------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | Chorus 1 G|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------|---------------------------6--4--3-------| A|---4-------4-------4-------4--------|---4-------4-------6----------------6----| E|-------4-------4-------4-------4----|-------4-------4-------4-----------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | G|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| D|---------------3---4-------4---4----|-----------------------6-----------------| A|---4-------4-----------4------------|---4-------4-------4-------4-------------| E|-------4----------------------------|-------4-------4-------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | Verse 3 G|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| D|---6-------6-------6-------6-----5--|---6-------6-------8-------8-------5-----| A|-------6-------6-------6------6-----|-------6-------6-------6-------6-8-------| E|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | G|----------------------------------------|-------------------------------------| D|---6------------------------------------|---6-------6-------6-------6---------| A|-------6------------3---4-------4---4---|-------6-------6-------6-------------| E|-----------4--4--6----------4-----------|-------------------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | Verse 4 G|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| D|---6-------6-------6-------6--------|---6-------6-------8-------8-------5-----| A|-------6-------6-------6-------6----|-------6-------6-------6-------6-8-------| E|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | G|--------------------------------------|---------------------------------------| D|---6----------------------------------|---6-------6-------6-------6-----------| A|-------6----------3---4-------4---4---|-------6-------6-------6---------------| E|-----------4---6----------4-----------|---------------------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | Special Chorus G|------------------------------------| D|---------------3---4-------4---4----| A|---4-------4-----------4------------| E|-------4----------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | G|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| D|---------------3---4-------4---4----|-----------------------6-----------------| A|---4-------4-----------4------------|---4-------4-------4-------4-------------| E|-------4----------------------------|-------4-------4-------------------------| | X X X X X X X X | X X X X X X X X | And that's all variations.
