------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Soundtrack - Be Bop Deluxe ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: axe victim Email: ax3v1ct1m@gmail.com Leave a message on my ‘Ultimate Guitar’ profile or comment here and I’ll get back to you. Tuning: EADGBe | / slide up | \ slide down | s slur ( very quick slide with emphasis on the last note ) | h hammer-on | p pull-off | b bend | r relax bend | pb pre-bend note to pitch | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note |(0) optional note By request, this epic track from the Futurama sessions. Again, this song was probably written on piano, so it was challenging to tab. Hope you enjoy it. Intro and theme: ( piano chords, lead guitar... ) Time signature is something weird like 9/4, I've put one extra beat in the second bar. Easier to listen to and feel than to explain. ___Dm__________G_______F___Am_______F___G___________________F_______G______ e|--------------------------------|----------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------|----------------------------------------| G|------------/7-------5---9------|-5---7~~~~~~~~~~~~\---------------------| D|(0)-----------------------------|----------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------|----------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------|----------------------------------------| | 1 -

I will add some more info below. Additional: Practice this scale for part A solos, hammer-on/pull-off or slide as you wish, this is just a guide. Practice in reverse as well.
