Tuning: E A D G B E
Song: Bedbugs & ballyhoo Artist: Echo & the Bunnymen Composers: Will Sergeant, Ian McCulloch, Les Pattison & Pete de Freitas Album: Bring on the dancing horses Tabbed by DJ 12th Mar 2015 Based on the version used on the 12" single and the 'Bring on the dancing horses' album. The eponymous 'Echo & the Bunnymen' album version has Ray Manzarek, of The Doors, adding some additional keyboard elements. Video performance at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nr0Oz8rMmIM&list=RDnr0Oz8rMmIM#t=45 D = xx0232 A = x02220 Dm7/A = x00565 or x00211 F = 133211 Asus4 = x02230 G/A = x00787 or x00433 G = 355433 A7 = x02020 Apart from the Choruses, you could play the D-F-G progression all the way through, but using the Dm7/A and G/A gives a feel of what the Keyboards/Strings are doing and adds some variety.
