Monterey Tab by Tim Buckley Song: Monterey Artist: Tim Buckley Album: Starsailor Transcriber: Daniel "HanMeGitarren" Widegren This is one of the greatest songs by Tim Buckley, the first times i heard it I shaked because of the adrenaline that went thru me. It's just a terrific song. Anyway, it's pretty much built on improvisation but here are the riffs that are used throughout the song. Main Riff: e|-----------| B|-----------| G|10\8--8--5-|This riff is played in the beginning and in the end, and in D|10\8--8--5-|between. A|8-\6--6--3-| E|-----------| Main riff add: e|--------| B|6/8/11--| G|--------|Sometimes this thing comes in, followed by the main riff. D|3/5/8---| A|--------| E|--------| Riff 2: e|--------11--------11--11--11--11-----------| B|-9--10--8---------9---8---9---8------------| G|-8--8---8---------9---8---9---8---7--5--15-|This is the part when he D|-7--8--------------------------------------|sings "Under a loop of A|----------------------------------5--3--13-|stars..". You could say it's E|-------------------------------------------|the chorus of the song. Riff 3: e|----------------------| B|----------------6/8/11| G|----10------6-5-------|This is the "By the pebbles of the highway.." D|10------6-5-----3/5/8-|part. A|----------------------| E|----------------------| That's basicly it. It isn't a very play-along-able song, really, but it's really cool to play and sing.
