Somebody Bring Me

Tab

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

interlude?

..sweet devil, sweet devil's got my soul

* Don't PLAY the c at the first fret on the b string, but it's helpful to

anchor your index finger there

$ - don't play 'D Dx' on the third line of the verse

+ on the very last note of the song, bend the g upto an a by pushing down the

g string BEHIND the nut (but don't expect to be in tune afterwards),

alternatively, just hammer on to the second fret on the g string

EADGBe

x02220 - A

xx0232 - D

xx0230 - Dsus9

xx0010 - 'Dx' ?? Dsus4(add7,9) ??

xx0233 - Dsus4

022100 - E

320003 - G

h is a hammer on

p is a pull off

~~ is vibrato

-x- pick, but mute the string at the neck

/ is bend up

0.5

/ is bend up half a half step

Sounds great on a 12 string! Any improvements welcome.
