• Song:

    Flake

  • Artist:

    Ben Harper

I'm not going to bother trying to tab Ben's slide solo at the very end, but for the last
lines of the chorus before Ben breaks into crazy slide guitar jamming,Ben comes in and
a little fill over Jack's rhythym.  Ben actually plays Flake on his lap slide in open F 
(FCFACF), but here is the basic format of that fill in standard tuning for all of
who dont feel like learning lap slide guitar in the next 5 minutes.  At the bottom I 
it in open F for the slide.
