AC/DC - Can I sit next to you girl
Tabbed by Jason Kester <jkester@sea.ms.ch2m.com>

AC/DC never really bothered to tune up before recording an album, so you may
have to tune down a quarter step or so to get to the right place.


Intro Chords:
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-------6-8-------------------------------------------------------------
+-6-8-9-6-8-------------------------------------------------------------
+-6-8-9-4-6-------------------------------------------------------------
+-4-6-7-----------------------------------------------------------------

Verse:
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-4H6-8-6-8-4H6-8-6-8---------------------------------------------------
+-4..-4-4-4-4..-4-4-4------------1-2-2-2-2-1-------------1-2-2-2-2-1----
+----------------------2-2-2-2-4-------------4-2-2-2-2-4-------------4--

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-4H6-8-6-8-4H6-8-6-8------------------------1-2-2-2-2------------------
+-4..-4-4-4-4..-4-4-4------------1-2-2-2-2-4-----------2-1-0-0-0-0-2-4--
+----------------------2-2-2-2-4----------------------------------------

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-7-7-9-7-7-7-9-7-7-7-9-7-7..8..9-9-11-9-9-9-11-9-9-9-11-9-9..8..7------
+-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5..6..7-7-7--7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7--7-7..6..5------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Repeat the 7-7-9-7 part a few more times, then:
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
+-4-2-------------6-----------------------------------------------------
+-----4-2-0-------6-----------------------------------------------------
+-----------2-0-2-4-----------------------------------------------------

And you're back where you started.

Near the end it does this for a while:
+-------------------------------------------------------------
+-------------------------------------------------------------
+-8-------6--5------------------------------------------------
+-8-------6--5------------------------------------------------
+-6-------4--3------------------------------------------------
+-------------------------------------------------------------


That's about it. It takes a while to get the picking and fingering right
in the walking part. I keep my middle finger on the 2nd fret & pick
alternately down & up.



The System:

--2H4-- Hammer on
--4P2-- Pull off
--2S4-- Slide
--2..-- Let Ring
--2..2- Let Ring, then hit again
--2~~-- Vibrato

--0-0-- Palm Mute
p p


--0-0-- Up & Down Picking
U D

--0-0-2-0-0-3-0-0-2-0-0-3-0-0-2H3-- Metallica
p..........................
D U D U D U D U D U D U D U D

The spacing of the notes kind of reflects the timing of the song, but not
very well.
