Tuning: E A D G B E

Song: I'm a believer Artist: The Monkees Composer: Neil Diamond Tabbed by: DJ 13th Aug 2014

Play the ^G riff triplets by barring the 4th and 5th strings with the index finger, and adding the hammer-ons with the little finger. In the choruses, instead of the straight G7, you could substitute it with a G7[no3]= 3x0031, to simulate the keyboard riff.

G7[no3] = xxx031 D/A = x00232 D = xx0232

^C = xxx010 C = x32010 D7 = xx0212 G = 320033 F = 133211 G7 = 320001

h = hammer-on note Please select a star rating for this tab, many thanks ===================================================================== [Intro] G7[no3]C G e |------1-1--0-0--|-------------------------|---------------------| B |------3-3--1-1--|-------------------------|---------------------| G |--0---0-0--0-0--|-------------------------|---------------------| D |----------------|-------3-------3------3--|-------3-------3-----| A |----------------|--3-h5----3-h5----3-h5---|--3-h5----3-h5----3--| E |----------------|-------------------------|---------------------| /__/__/ /__/__/ /__/__/ /__/__/ /__/__/ / [Verse 1]
