SLOAN - Sugartune

From: Smeared

Tabbed by: Mark Wiebe, rwiebe@mindlink.bc.ca

This song has already been posted by someone else but it's

totally wrong, so I thought I'd put my own version on. I'm

glad to see that there are some other Sloan fans out there

in cyberspace. They were a great band while they lasted. Tell

me if you have any comments, corrections, or suggestions. Thanks.

Tuned down about a half step Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb (It doesn't

seem like it's quite on the exact pitch, so you might have

to fool around with you're tuning pegs a bit to match it.)

During A, B, C# part of Fig.1 part the second guitar sometimes

picks the notes of the chords rather than strumming them.

Keep playing Fig.2 until the end if the song......sugartune....by sloan

if you don't know sloan, they are (were) a cool Canadian band

that just recently broke up. ):

here's the song sugartune from their first album "smeared" (go buy

it) It's pretty easy, mostly power chords, I don't have some

parts, so if you like sloan help me out.

For people who have never heard this song before I put in the beat

values, for the intro atleast.

Play with distortion, I think there's another guitar playing some-

thing but I have no idea what.

Comments

Spotted a wrong chord, or know a capo position that sounds closer to the record?

No comments yet. If you play this one, say what works.
