Tuning:
Artist: Hole
Song: Malibu
Tab by: Sarah Milligan
This is my first tab but honestly copied most from pieces of other tabs.
I couldn’t find one that was just how I perceive the song, so I’m posting my own version.
I love the chord progression in the verses. If you sit down and practice with different
chord/finger shapes, you can figure out how to lazily change chords as Courtney would do.
Chords:
Em9 Bm7 G6sus D/F#
e--2--------0--------0--------x
B--3--------3--------1--------3
G--0--------2--------0--------2
D--2--------0--------0--------0
A--2--------2--------x--------x
E--0--------x--------3--------2
Notes:
- Verses: first strum of the Em9 is open low E string only.
- Chorus: you can add a little 0-2-3 on the low E string as you’re switching to G.
- Bridge: you can add your thumb on fret 2 of the low E string for the Ds of the bridge.
