Dream Sequence - Arab Strap
Tabbed by Adam Carrington (Glasgow)
It's cliche but this is my first tab. I love Arab Strap.
Key of C
This is the piano riff:
E|----------------|----------| |------------------------------------------|
B|----------------|----4-6---| |-------------------4-6-------4-6--------4-|
G|-5----5-3---3-5-|--5-------|x2|-5-5-5-3---3-5-5-5-----5-5-5-----3-3-3-5--|
D|----------5-----|----------| |---------5--------------------------------|
A|----------------|----------| |------------------------------------------|
E|----------------|----------| |------------------------------------------|
*play Cs and A#s as 'A' shape barres and the Fs and the Gs as 'E' shape barres*
Verse 1
CGive me your A#jibberish tonight
And talk to me with your eyes shut
Make me giggle in your sleep
FAnd I can Gdream that you're a slut
And when I wake up stiff please
Just feel free to use me
Them go to work and let me wonder
What it was that made you choose me
Instrumenal chorus
*play the piano riff*
*...or these chords as 'A' shape barres*
C, A#
C, A#
C, C#
D#, A#
Verse 2
Chorus
Verse 3
*just play the root notes to the chords*
C, A# x7
G, F
Final Chorus
CThere's no better jA#ourney than me Con my way to yA#ou
CSitting there all sC#mug knowing what D#we might get up A#to
And one day we'll be idle and we'll both be past our peak
So until then all we can do is master our technique
So lets sleep...
Outro
I think Malcolm's guitar is playing the chorus chords as D shape barre chords up the
I play it like so:
E|-x-x-x-x---x--x--x--x--x--x--x- x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--|
B|-13-13-13--11-11-11-11-11-11-11 x2 13-13-13-13-14-14-14-14-17-17-17-17-11-|
G|-12-12-12--10-10-10-10-10-10-10 12-12-12-12-13-13-13-13-16-16-16-16-10-|
D|-x-x-x-x---x--x--x--x--x--x--x- x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--|
A|------------------------------- ---------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------- ---------------------------------------|
for the ending, play the piano riff an octave up the neck, so repeat the pattern
with the 17th fret on the G string.
I hope you find this tab useful. theres lots of space in this song, so learn your C
scale and let loose a bit, especially at the end. maybe a cheeky wah...
