Long Distance Call Tab by Phoenix


Since the cd version doesn't have any rythmguitar Long distance call
needs to be played like on the bbc2 radioprogram. If you are unable to
get that version try to play these chords with the cd.
Sounds pretty funky!

from bbc2 radioprogram:       capotasto on third fret
from cd:                      capotasto on fifth fret
Live gig                      capotasto on fifth fret

What is a capotasto?
A capo (aka "capotasto") is a mechanical device that
clamps across the guitarneck holding all the strings down at one fret.
It enables you to play in different keys.

Note:
the intro chords are easiest played
if the thumb is used to push down the bass E string notes.
