---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Watch That Man - David Bowie ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: adslam3 While at home with H1N1, I realized that his song has not been tabbed. So I am going to try to correct this with the following. Also, due to the fact that I have an insane amount of downtime, expect a chords version with lyrics soon. Tuning: Standard - This is a tab just for the Rhythm Guitar NOTE: This song has some "surf rock" strumming in the verses that I will try to show but overall I'm NOT SHOWING EXACT STRUMMING as the chord changes are easy to hear. Intro: (repeate twice) G Cadd9 E A e|-----3~------3~-----------------------------------------------------------| B|-----3~------3~-----------------------------------------------------------| G|-----0~------0~-----------------------------------------------------------| D|-----0~------2~---------2-------------------------------------------------| A|-----2~------3~---------2-----------7-7-9-7-------------------------------| E|-----3~-----------------0-----------5-5-5-5-------------------------------| ^^^^^^^ This is the "surf rock" stuff Verses: This is played twice for each verse. Remember: strumming NOT exact!

Sorry I don't have Mick's guitar part. It's fantastic and I'm not that good to figure it out. But enjoy this so you can play it on your own. | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note ============================================================================
