Stranglers Guitar Tab

[ThruBeingCool]

Ta once again Scotticusnorvegicus

[Bubba]

I'm afraid I've never been able to do tab.

I'm lost in what you're saying here Bubba. Do you mean you can't write tab or can you not play along to it with a guitar ?
Any problems ? I'll try and help you out mate. That's what it's all about my friend.
Geez a shout if your stuck.

I can't do either! :D

But I'm quite good at playing the Stranglers on guitar. I sometimes wish I could help people out with stuff they're trying to do, but I don't have the means. I suppose I ought to learn how to write it and do the definitive "Walk On By" tab, but don't really have the motivation.

The rest of Go Buddy Go is:
Chorus C-G-D-A then back to the tab above in the key of E

Middle eight or break. Call it what you want is G#min-A-G#min-A-G#min-F#-B then back to the chorus.


Hughs riff at the end is something like this (noticed I said something !) Hit the numbered note and pull off to the open note.
