THE OFFSPRING - "Dirty Magic" alternate complete tab

Tabbed out by Alex (kn8dn@yahoo.com)
Submitted By Dexter Krishnan (peace_maker41@hotmail.com)


This song is obviously played on two guitars. This tab works well as a
normal studio track cover on two electric guitars, or can be played the
acoustic way which I have also tabbed out.

Standard E-A-D-G-B-E tuning.



"Intro And Verse Guitar 1", clean

E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------7--------7-------10-------9--------2---3-2------2---2-3-|
E|-0-0-3/5-5---5----5---5/8-8----8/7-7---7----0---0--------0---0-----|
       

"Intro Guitar 2", clean (there are extra strums here and there if you
                       listen to the song... it's just improvision.)

   gradually strum harder
E|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|

"Verse Guitar 2" fills in during the verses while "Verse Guitar 1" plays.
These fills are played the same way as "Intro Guitar 2". Slide that finger
from five to three and off for the open string when you see fit during the
song.



"Chorus" can be played acoustically as demonstrated on the live acoustic
duet with Dexter and Noodles. This chorus tab works alright for electric
as well. Played with light distortion. The studio track uses picking in
sequence for the D powerchord (not the chord I wrote) at the very end of
this bar below.

G|-7-9--9----7-9--9-----------------7-7-7-7--7-|

A|-5-7--7----5-7--7----5--5--5-5----5-5-5-5--5-|
E|---------------------3--3--3-3---------------|
                                          ^Notice the 8. Move your pinky
                                           finger to 8 for this strum.

"Alternate Chorus" is played with open chords and sounds killer on an
acoustic guitar. The chord name is listed above the chord.

   D  Em Em   D  Em Em   G  G  G  G    D  D  D  D
E|-2--0--0----2--0--0----3--3--3--3----2--2--2--2-|

For the first set of Em chords, you can do this chord instead to
simulate the octave since you will be leaving out the root and the
fifth notes (ie- the first 0 and the first 2):

E|-0-|
B|-0-|
G|-0-|
D|-2-|
A|---|
