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

40 Oz. To Freedom - Sublime

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by: nonpoint42

Email: me2846@hotmail.com

Tuning: standard

Intro/verse:

The rhythm is easy to figure out. Another guitar plays little lead licks. They are very

hard to figure out but they are mainly on the 3rd, 5th, and 6th frets on the 6th, 5th

and 4th strings, so you can improvise your way through it.

G C Dm

e|--3-3-3-3-3-3-5-5--------------------------|
B|--3-3-3-3-5-5-7-7--------------------------|
G|--4-4-4-4-5-5-7-7--------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------|

The chorus is this:

G Bb F

e|------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------|
D|--5----5----8----3------------------------|
A|--5----5----8----3------------------------|
E|--3----3----6----1------------------------|

During the part where it is just the voices talking, you he plays pretty random licks

on the same frets and strings as in the first verse. The second verse is the same as the first.

The guitar solo is 2 guitars. I couldn't figure out exactly what bot of them are doing,

but I think I did pretty well. The way I tabbed it out is basically correct, but if it

doesn't sound right just try play other licks in the same area as the one I have:
