The Unicorns - Child star

"CHILD STAR" by THE UNICORNS (tab by andrew saturn / saturn at gmail dot com) ;=====Disclaimer=========================================================== ; I figured this out really fast because I wanted to play this AWESOME song ; There may be mistakes. I've never seen The Unicorns live, nor have I ever ; seen any "official tabs", nor have I studied their playing style. This is ; all done by ear and sounds good to me... but I'm no expert. The bass part ; and the shakers are fairly "duh" so I won't do those. [intro bass riff, fret string noise using a Dm chord] [Guitar intro and main part] -- listen to the song to hear how the 4th section of this part is played. -- variations on Dm and such.... repeat 4 times in the beginning. E :1---1---1---1---|0---0---0---0---|0---0---0---0---|0---0---0---0---| B :3---3---3---3---|3---3---3---3---|1---1---1---1---|2---2---2---2---| G :2-2---2---2---2-|--2---2---2---2-|--0---0---0---0-|--2---2-3&3---0-| D :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| A :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| E :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| "Is there a photo of me..." [bass only] "Do you look up at night..." [bass + drums only] [Guitar part + organ + singing.] -- repeat the "intro" part above -- ring out a Dm chord to enter into the next part... [Organ + drum solo.] -- guitar begins to play an Am/A chord, progressively gets louder (Crescendo) -- [Mini Guitar solo] -- seems to be played sliding around on the D and G strings: E :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| B :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| G :--3--33---------|--7--77-9s-2----|--3--33---------|----------------| D :--------3-3s7---|----------------|--------3-3s7---|----------------| A :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| E :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| [Pre-happy part] -- use neck pickup or low-treble I wrote you a letter...
