• Song:

    Pulling Teeth

  • Artist:

    Newton Faulkner

In this tab is the intro, verses and chorus. However, the bridge is unknown and
therefore left out.

Tuning: B
        E
        B
        E
        F#
        E
This tuning is very awkward, so Newton's DGDGAD tuning is also correct, just two steps
higher. However, if you choose DGDGAD then then one chord is different, as shown when you
get there.

H = Hit the guitar above the sound-hole with your wrist for a bass thump.
S = Slap the side of the guitar under the neck with your left hand.
X = Slap the string with your thumb against the fretboard.

INTRO:

Complete the verse again, and then the bridge and one more chorus and it ends. Thank
you, it's my first.
