"Love Rollercoaster" by The Ohio Players, 1975
Intro, main riff
tabbed by Freshy Fresh Fresh
The '....' stuff represents somewhat complicated rhythms that you can
figure out yourself. All the tabs I've seen for this song forget to
include the add9 chords that the guitarist uses as a subtle accent to
the riff, so I made this tab!
riff I:

riff II:

The guitarist varies between I and II depending on his mood, but the
idea to keep is that there are two distinct main riffs in this song.
