Subject: Dwight Yoakam: Fast As You.crd indigo@cats.ucsc.edu (Adam Schneider) [Thanks to David Smillie & Mike James for the lyrics.] [All the E measures pretty much follow the riff that I've tabbed out at the end. The F# is more of an F#5, and the A that follows it is kind of A5-ish. The B in the bridge could be a B7, but that's not important.]

TAB: Here's the main riff for The A measures in the middle the E measures: of the verse (NOT the end) are pretty much the same: E ----------------| E ----------------| B ----------------| B ----------------| G ----------------| G --------0-------| D --------0-------| D ----------2-4-2-| A ----------2-4-2-| A 0-0-3-4---------| E 0-0-3-4---------| E ----------------| ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . I think the B in the bridge is like this: E ----------------|----------------| B ----------------|----------------| G --------2-------|----------------| D ----1-4---4-6-4-|----------------| A 2-2-------------|2-2-0-0---------| E ----------------|--------4-4-2-2-| ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . I'm not at all sure about the A measures in the bridge, but I think they might be something like this: E ----------------| B ----------------| G ----------------| D 2-2-4-2-5-2-4-2-| A 0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-| E ----------------| ==-=--=---=----=-----=-------=---------=---------=-------=-----=----=---=--=-== Adam Schneider indigo@ucscb.ucsc.edu U.C.
