"Just Got Paid" by ZZTop from "Rio Grande Mud" Ther are two guitars on the recording (fingers in standard tuning and slide likely in open G), but I would guess this song is played live by alternating between a slide and fingers on one guitar in standard tuning, so that is my aim here. BF Gibbons throws a lot of other notes in here and there, but here are the basics. Listen to a recording to piece them together: Intro e--------------------------------------- b--------------------------------------- g--------------------------------------- d--------5------------------------------ a--5^7-------7---5---7-----7------------ E------0---0---0---0---3^0-------------- e--------------------------------------- b--------------------------------------- g--------------------------------------- d--------5------------------------------ a--5^7-------7---5---7-----7------------ E----------------------3^0-------------- e--------------------------------------- b--------------------------/12---------- g--------------------------------------- d--------5------------------------------ a--5^7-------7---5---7------------------ E----------------------3^0-------------- Actually the second guitar here^, but you can fake it with a slide. Main Riff e--------------------------------------- b--------------------------------------- g--------------------------------------- d--------5------------------------------ a--5^7-------7---5---7-----7------------ E------0---0---0---0---3^0-------------- Apply judicious palm muting for maximum grind Verse Riff e----------------------------------------- b----------------------------------------- g--------9-9----9-9----7-7----7-7--------- d--------9-9----9-9----7-7----7-7--------- a--------------------------8^9------------ E----------------------------------------- Turnaround (played with slide in the recording) e----------------------------------------- b----------------------------------------- g----------------------------------------- d----5-------7---------------------------- a----5-------7---------------------------- E----3-------5---------------------------- or alternately, if you want to spice things up, especially if you are using a slide: e----------------------------------------- b--------/12~---------/14~-------------- g--------/12~---------/14~-------------- d----5---/12~----7----/14~-------------- a----5------------7----------------------- E----3------------5----------------------- Slide solo break begins with an A5 During the slide solo, rhythm is many variants of a little riff in E: e---------------------------------------- b-------------------9-------------------- g----------9--------9-------------------- d--9-9^11--11^9--9----------------------- a---------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------- changing to A: e---------------------------------------- b-------------------2-------------------- g----2-----2--------2-------------------- d--2-2^4---4^2--2------------------------ a---------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------- then back to E and ending in a few B5's. *Sorry, not going to attempt tabbing the slide solo After going back through a verse, the final bit e---------------------------------------- b---------------------------------------- g---------------------------------------- d--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0^2------------------- a-----------------------0--2~------------ E----------------------------------------
