Song: Do You Call My Name
Band: Ra
Tuning Drop D and then down a Step (C g c f a d)
Album: From One
Tabbed by: Zeradin (Zeradin@xmail.net)
This most likely is played in standard tuning (it'd make some things easier, but in my opinion crappier).
If you want to play it in standard just drop it a step, I'm going to do it in my tuning.
Why? Because it's better.
~ = Vibrato
/ and \ = Slides
^ = Bend
<5> = Natural Harmonics
pm = Palm Muting
p and h = pull off and hammer on, respectively
*Programmed intro*
(It is programmed, but here it is tabbed out because I feel like tabbing the main
part of it)

Pre-Chorus (Note I like playing the flange part on the first part instead of the G
chord, it sounds better and you standard tuning people can play harmonics on <5>
for the last 3 strings instead of the 14's):
