Tuning:
I play the song in standard tuning but if you want to play along with
the record you have to tune down the guitars one half step! The solos
are not tabbed - I suggest you just improvise those parts!
Guitar 1 plays the intro 4 times like this:
E||------0--------------------|---------------------|
B||---------3-----------1-----|-------6----5--------|
G||------------2-----2-----2--|--3----5----5--------|
D||---0-----------3-----------|--3------------------|
A||---------------------------|---------------------|
E||---------------------------|---------------------|
then, for the verse, goes into a rockabilly-like riff that is played with
the index finger first on the 10th fret:
|--10--10--10------------10--10--------|------10--10------------10--10----|
|--10--10--10------------10--10--------|------10--10------------10--10----|
|--------------12-10-11----------12-10-|--11----------12-10-11------------|
|--------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
then on the 3rd fret:
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/h/hellacopters/284587.html ]
|--3--3--3---------3--3------|-----3--3---------3--3----|
|--3--3--3---------3--3------|-----3--3---------3--3----|
|-----------5-3-4--------5-3-|--4--------5-3-4----------|
|----------------------------|--------------------------|
|----------------------------|--------------------------|
|----------------------------|--------------------------|
and finally on the 5th fret:
|--5--5--5---------5--5------|-----5--5---------5--5----|
|--5--5--5---------5--5------|-----5--5---------5--5----|
|-----------7-5-6--------7-5-|--6--------7-5-6----------|
|----------------------------|--------------------------|
|----------------------------|--------------------------|
|----------------------------|--------------------------|
Then the intro riff is played another 4 times as chorus:
|------0--------------------|---------------------|
|---------3-----------1-----|-------6----5--------|
|------------2-----2-----2--|--3----5----5--------|
|---0-----------3-----------|--3------------------|
|---------------------------|---------------------|
|---------------------------|---------------------|
Then we go into yet another cycle of verse + chorus riffs leading to the first solo
which is played over the chord progression:
F/F/F/F/C/C/C/C/F/F/F/F/C/C/C/C/G/A
Immediately comes the second solo which is played over a regular blues
chord progression:
D/D/D/D/G/G/D/D/A/G/D/A
Then were back to the verse riff once again followed by the intro/chorus
riff played 8 times then ending with an outro consisting of four bars of D.
Guitar 2 doubles on the intro/chorus parts and during verses plays a simple rock'n'roll rhythm:
D/D/D/FC/D/D/D/FC/G/G/G/FC/A/A/A/A. See above for chord progressions during solos!
This is quite a simple song to learn. The difficult bit is to play it fast like the original!
Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated!
