Love is on the Way

Saigon Kick
Tab
★4.8(44)

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

Verse

The verse part is picked like so:

(repeat)

e|---------0--------------------|
B|-------0---0------------------|
G|-----8-------8----------------|
D|---6-----------6-----9~~--9---|
A|-4-----------------7--------5-|
E|-----------------5------------|

Chorus

The chorus has basic chords and is picked like so:

E B

e|---------0---------------0------------------------------------------------|
B|-------0---0-----------0---0------------5-4-------------4-5-4-------------|
G|-----1-------1-------1-------1--------4-----4---------4-------4-----------|
D|---2-----------2---2-----------2----4---------4-----4-----------4---------|
A|----------------------------------2-------------2-2-----------------------|

C#m Asus2

e|---------4---------------4----------------0---------------0---------------|
B|-------5---5-----------5---5------------0---0-----------0---0-------------|

D|---6-----------6---6-----------6----2-----------2---2-----------2---------|
A|-4---------------4----------------0---------------0-----------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Bridge

Now, after the second chorus, there's the bridge ("And in the mornin' I'll be

gone away...") which also features simple chords picked like this:

Bsus2 E Asus2 (repeat)

e|---------2---------------2---------------0---------------0----------------|
B|-------2---2-----------2---2-----------0---0-----------0---0--------------|
G|-----4-------4-------4-------4-------1-------1-------2-------2------------|
D|---4-----------4---4-----------4---2-----------2---2-----------2----------|
A|-2---------------2-------------------------------0------------------------|
E|---------------------------------0----------------------------------------|

Solo

Okay, here's the tab for the solo, it's not as hard as it may look. I'm no

lead guitarist by ANY stretch of the imagination and I can play it without

too much effort. This is played over the verse progression:

e|-9h11h12-11-9----9--------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------12---9--------------------------10p9h10-9---14p12--14-------|
G|---------------------9-8----------------9p8h9-----------------------------|
D|-------------------------11~~~--11p9h11-----------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|---------------------------------------------9h11-12-/14-12-11-12-/16-----|
B|-12p10p9-10----9-----------------------------x----------------------------|
G|------------11---11-9-11-9-8--/9-9--/6-6~~---x----------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------x----------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|-14-14-12-12p11-11p9-9-11h12-11-12~~--------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------11p9h11-9--11--11p9h11-11h13p11----|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|-------------------------------9-9~~--12-12~~-|
B|---------9h10h12--10-9-10-12~~----------------|
G|-9--11---x------------------------------------|
D|---------x------------------------------------|
A|---------x------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------|

I think the hardest part is stretching your fingers to fit the

first two chords (the verses). It's a pain in the ass.

Don't be afraid to use your pinky...
