"Down Together" - The Refreshments
(from the album "Fizzy, Fuzzy, Big and Buzzy", 1996)

Tabbed by Des McKinney
---------------------------------------------------
All the lead guitar parts are listed first (there're
a bunch of them for this song). If you're playing
it by yerself, just ignore all the riffs here, and
go with the chords listed below with the lyrics
(Chord chart at end). For the most part, it's just
bar-chords.

with some right-hand muting)

Subject: TAB: "Down Together" by The Refreshments

Since there are currently no tabs for The Refreshments, I figured I would
place the first one in the archive. Although I am not a huge fan of The
Refreshments, one of my best friends is. And, as a result, I figured this
little bit out. I apologize that this is all I have but I do not even
own the CD. Maybe if someone else is interested, they could figure out
the leads or the changes. Regardless, here is the main riff.

-2-2-2-------4-4-4-------7-7-7-------9-9-9------

*********************NOTE***********************
As I am sure you already know, these chords are palm muted.
However, this might/probably change(s) somewhere in the song but
I rest assured that you will know where and when.
