BOSTON - "Rock And Roll Band" Tablature
Official BOSTON Tablature & Sheet Music »
PROPS GO TO: Peter Vlahandreas
OK, here's a decent tab of Rock and Roll Band. The solo's kinda sketchy, because there's two guitars, and I only bothered with one. I think by now you know my bend notation, but if I haven't explained it, it's like this: 14b16 means bend 14 up to the note that 16 would make, i.e. a full step. 16b14 means bend the note before picking and then bring it down to pitch (down a full step in this case). The / means slide up, \ means slide down. So here's Rock and Roll Band... ------------------------|-------------|--------------------- ------------------------|-------------|--------------------- -4--4--4-4-4-4--4-----2-|-4-4-4-4-----|--------------------- -4--4--2-4-2-4--4--2--2-|-4-4-4-4-----|--------------------- -2--2--2-2-2-2--2--2--0-|-2-2-2-2-etc-|--------------------- -------------------0----|-------------|--------------------- The verse lick goes like this: 1-3. 4. 5-6. --------------------------|-------|----------|-----------|-- --------------------------|-------|----------|-----------|-- -----------------2--------|-------|----------|-----------|-- --2--------2-----2--------|-------|----------|-----------|-- --2--------------0--0-3-4-|-0-----|-0-5--0-6-|-0h3p0-----|-- --0--0-3-4---3-4----------|---3-4-|----------|-------3-4-|-- The 1-3 is the ending of the lick for times 1-3, 4. for the 4th, etc. After the sixth time it goes ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------9-7--5--4--5-5-- --------------------------------------------9-8--6--4--6-6-- --2--------2-----4--4-------4-----7-7-7--------------------- --2--------------4--4-----4---6-4-7-7-7--------------------- --0--0-3-4---3-4-2--2-5/6---------5-5-5-etc----------------- The chorus chords are ----------------|-------------------------------------|----- ----------------|-------------------------------------|----- --6--6--2--2--4-|-----------------9-------------------|----- --6--6--2--2--4-|-2-4--4-5-6-7-9--9--9-11-9---------2-|----- --4--4--0--0--2-|-2-4--4-5-6-7-9--7--7--7-7-----2-4---|----- ----------------|-0-2--2-3-4-5-7--0---------3/4-------|----- Then back to the verse and chorus, etc. The solo goes something like this, but there's two guitars and I only did one. -----------------------------------14----------------------- -------------------14--------------14----------------------- --13b15-.-.-.--11-----11--11-13b15----15b13-11--13---------- ---------------------------------------------------11-11---- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------6-9^6-------9-9--16b18----- --7------7-10^7------7-10^7-9b11-------12b14---------------- ----9b11--------9b11---------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ --14^16^14----14--19b21-19-19b21--17^19^17----17--21b23-21-21b23-- -----------16------------------------------19--------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ --4--2------------------------------------------------------ --------4/6------------------------------------------------- ------------7----------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ The rest of the song is pretty much just verse/chorus stuff.
