Tabbed by marcus lubbock status quo rain lubbock4king@hotmail.com Richard Parfitt Francis uses a normal standard tuning (E A D G B E) while Rick uses an open G-tuning (D G D G B D) plus a capo on the second position which makes it an open A-tuning (E A E A C# E). Drop your low E two half steps lower to D. You can use your D-string (which is an octave higher) to bring the string to the right pitch. Do the same with your A-string. Drop the A-string two half steps to G and use the G-string now to bring the string to the right pitch. The high e-string has also to be dropped to d. Use again your D-string (an octave lower now) to tune the high e-string to d. Now place a capo (if you have one) on the second position. After you've placed the capo you're guitar can be slightly out of tune again, so maybe you have to adjust the tuning a bit. 1.

Tabs Rick: Before you start you should have mastered the following staccato- technique: 1 + + 2 + + 3 + + 4 + + E |------------------------| The notes above the dots have to be C#|------------------------| played shortly. You can obtain that A |------------------------| by letting the pick rest on the strings E |0---0-0---0-0---0-0---0-| right after you've played them (in A |0---0-0---0-0---0-0---0-| starting position again, ready to play E |------------------------| the next notes). The second string will . . . . be damped automatically by the righthand indexfinger. Start slowly and gradually build up speed. You could also use the fingers of your lefthand ofcourse but many times you'll need them for fretting the strings. But for bars like the following (which you will find among the tabs) you can use your lefthand for damping: 1 + + 2 + + 3 + + 4 + + E |------------------------| C#|0---0-0---0-0---0-------| A |0---0-0---0-0---0-----0-| E |0---0-0---0-0---0-0h2-0-| A |0---0-0---0-0---0-------| E |------------------------| . . .

You could play the third in these riff-chords like: E |------| C#|5--3--| A |5--3--| I'm not sure Rick plays them. Francis does, so in my E |5--3--| humble opinion the riff sounds better without the thirds. A |------| The choice is up to you.

out Francis: I'm not quite sure about how the mainriff is being played by Francis. I had many possible solutions but I've finally written this one down. But I'm talking about small details here, the base covers his playing. For instance I'm not sure if he's playing the full A-chord. You can't really hear him playing the third (C#) and the (E) on some places, but on other places you can.
