John Mayer - Voodoo child

This is a shred blues lick for advanced players. Its a decending scale run. Most of youtube videos when searching for fast blues licks, aren't that fast and so I created this tab to help you achive faster blues playing. Similar to John Mayer and SRV when at their fastest. DISCLAMER: This is for advanced guitar players and advanced tab readers! Step 1: Learn this repeating lick first, it will help alot. Learn to play it over and over again. We can call it "lick one": e|-12h15p12--12-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------15--15-12-12h15--------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Step 2: Learn this lick. We can call it "lick two".: e|-12h15p12--12-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------15--15-12--------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|------------------15-12-12h15---------------------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Step 3: Play lick one on the B and G string instead of the e and B string. And play lick two on the B, G and D string instead of the e, B and G string. Step 4: Play lick one on the G and D string intead of the B and G string and lick two on the G, D and A string insted of the B, G and D string etc... The whole lick looks like this: e|-12h15p12--12-----------12h15p12--12---------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------15--15-12-12h15--------15--15-12-----------12h15p12--12-----------12h15p12--12------------------| G|-----------------------------------------15-12-12h15--------15--15-12-12h15--------15--15-12-------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------15-12-12h15-| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| e| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G| -12h15p12--12-----------12h15p12--12--------------------------------------------------------------------| D| ---------15--15-12-12h15--------15--15-12-----------12h15p12--12----------------------------------------| A| -----------------------------------------15-12-12h15--------15--15-12-12h15p12--12----------------------| E| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------15--15-12-0\--------------| I hope this helps :) ************************************ | h Hammer-on | p Pull-off | \ Slide down ************************************
