Watermelons In Easter Hay Tab by Frank Zappa


Watermelon in Easter Hay
By Frank Zappa

Tabbed by Bryce "Zombat" Homick

This is a favorite song of mine, this tab is based off the version from Joe's Garage.
I had to invent a notation, the b> - which means you bend the string before playing the note,
then dropping the bend down - its like an opposite bend.
Combined with a bend, it sounds a lot like a whammy bar (which you can also do.)
Anyway, I'm still working on this song, so check back in the week for more - when zappa starts mixin'
it up during the solo I find it hard to tab. We'll see what happens.
Either way, this is a little more extensive than the only other tab I can find for the song.

p  = Pull off
h  = hammer on
/  = slide
b  = Bend
b> = play note bent
