"Taxi Grab",
from Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll, Too Young to Die!
Bear with me, this is my first tab ever.
Little intro thingie:
e: |----
b" |----
g: |4s16
d: |----
a: |----
e: |----
Taxi!
Riff 1: about 8x
e: |-----------7--------
b: |-10b12-8------------
g: |--------9-9-9s7-7-9-
d: |------------9s7-7-9-
a: |------------7s5-5-7-
e: |--------------------
Shake a leg....
Can't find a .......
Bodies jammed....
Evacuating .....
Riff 2:
e: |-----------------------
b: |-----------------------
g: |-------9b119-7---------
d: |----7-9-------7-7---7-9
a: |-7h9-------------7h9---
e: |-----------------------
Nowhere to....
As the big store.....
Red lights....
Stop, step....
Over the previous verse, some slide playing comes in:
e: |---------------
b: |-3v-3s4-3v-3s12
g: |---------------
d: |---------------
a: |---------------
e: |---------------
Riff 2
Teatime calls....
With similar slide playing over that
Riff 2 with a B chord stuck in there.
Riff 1
More verses, then a solo rooted at(I think) the 7th fret
Some jamming, an outro with Riff 2.
Then it comes back in with something like:
e: |-------------------
b: |-------------------
g: |-7h9-9-11-9-9---7h9
d: |-------------7h9---
a: |-------------------
e: |-------------------
Toy around with that. Fun song, huh?
Martin Barre is an underrated player! Boost his legend!
