Beavis & Butt-head Theme from MTV

transcription by ?
tabbed and posted by Ed Westberg (westberg@vuse.vanderbilt.edu)


I saw this posted on the net over the summer, sorry I have no idea
who the original poster was. This is all I can remember, and as you
can see I have made no attempt at indicating timing.

: A // G/ D/ A// G/ DD G A Aminor Aminor // D/// Aminor// G start over....

: It is a cool, cheesy song and I would appreciate any tab or chord diagrams
: that anybody might have worked out for this GEM. :-)

: Someday I want to figure out how to play the "Ren and Stimpy" theme song.

this is what i have.. i dl'd the tab a while ago.


I've seen this requested so many times that I sat down and figured out what
I could for this tune. This is all approximate, and I know it's not
completely accurate in parts. There may be more than one guitar playing,
and there is certainly a piano playing in addition to the main line. So,
what you can reproduce with your one guitar may not sound exactly like
MTV.

It's in 4/4. The timing is shown by the beats above the tab/chords.
For the CRD section, you can figure out the strumming pattern yourself.

The opening tab --


1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 (beats)
e-------------------------------------------------------------|
B------10-----------8--------------------------10---10-10-----|
G--------9-----------------7----7--------------9----9--9----7-|
D-7--------------7-------------------10---7-----------------7-|
A-------------------------------------------------------------|
E-------------------------------------------------------------|

1 2 3 4 (beats)
e---------------------|
B---------------------|
G---7----7--9---------|
D---7----7--7---------|
A---------------------|
E---------------------|


Then, the chords for the rest of the progression --

1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
Am(5) C(8) D(10) D7 Am(5) E(1)

1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
E7(1) Am(5) C D Am C D [...]
(3)(5)

Numbers in parentheses indicate suggested positions for playing the chords.


hope this helps! seeya

'Lo all,
I was REALLY bored one day last year and I figured this out quite by
accident. Guitar World recently tabbed it as well. Their transcription
has the same notes as I have here, just further up the neck. It's in
the key of A:

repeat:
E-|-----5--------3-----------3-|---5-5------3-3-2-||------------||
B-|-------5-------------3-3--1-|---5-5-5----3-3-3-||------------||
G-|--2-------2------0---2-2----|-2-------2--------||--------2-2-||
D-|----------------------------|------------------||--------2-2-||
A-|----------------------------|------------------||----3-0-0-0-||
E-|----------------------------|------------------||0-3---------||

Then there's a bit of other lead stuff, but it starts to fade out after
that so don't bother...
