Kula Shaker: "Hey Dude"
from the album "K"


This is how I play this awesome song. It might not be entirely
correct, but it sounds really good to me. As always, listen to
the recording to get the rhythm right.

Intro:

Gm Bb C Csus4 C

The verse follows this pattern, but in the recording it's
played with bass only. The timing of the singing is really weird,
so once again, listen to the cd.
Strum mosty on the 4 highest strings during the verse.


Gm Bb C Csus4 C
All I have is all I need enough for ...

(same as above:)
I was younger once this guy came to me told me ...

In heaven ...

Well if it feels like summer you're ...


Eb7 F7

Chorus:

C Eb F Bb
Hey dude, don't lean ...

F Bb Eb F

C Eb F Bb

F Bb Eb F

Verse:

Gm Bb C Csus4 C

Eb7 F7

Chorus, and then:


C Bb A Ab
No, n no, n no, n no, n no, n no, ...

C Bb A Ab

Then there's the little riff before the solo:

C

|-3--1-----------------|-------1--------------|
|-------3p1------------|-1--3----3--1---------|
|--------------h3--0---|---------------3------|
|----------------------|----------------------| x 2
|----------------------|----------------------|
|----------------------|----------------------|

(Both this riff and the solo are played over the verse chords.)


Solo (sorry, I didn't tab that one)
