Re: Bridge To Better Days tab

It goes G-A on the low E string, then you play the top two notes of a c-major chord (g and e) then vibrato on a c on the G string.  That's the main riff (i hate writing in tab, so hopefully you'll be able to figure this out) the, I guess, second part of the riff is E then F# on the low E string followed by a D7 (which is just a mirror image of an open D major chord (in other words, you move the fretted D note (on the B string) down two frets to a C, which is the seventh of D, therefore creating a D7, which is spelled out 1,3,5,7, or in terms of D- D, F#, A, and C.

Hopefully you can figure this out, if not, just tell me and I will try to write in out in tab for you.
Also, welcome to the board, Paychekkk.

Re: Bridge To Better Days tab

well, here it goes-

------3-3-3-3-3-3-3------  (repeat) 
------5-5-5-5-5-5-5------
-----------------------5(v)-
-----------------------------
-----------------------------
-3-5------------------------

Then:
-------/2-2-2-2-2-2-2-----------------
-------/1-1-1-1-1-1-1-----------------
-------/2-2-2-2-2-2-2----------
---------------------------------
---------------------------------
--0-2------------------------------

hopefully this helps,
Scott

oh yeah, just so you know, the little (v) just means vibrato.

Re: Bridge To Better Days tab

Tell me which songs you want me to tab out- I know probably about half of Joe's songs- it might take me a while to tab them out though, because I don't have them written down anywhere (except for some fast runs etc.) so I would have to sit down with a guitar and tab it out as I play it, but I could do it.

Re: Bridge To Better Days tab

Do you know Pain & Sorrow, and High Water Everywhere, Reconsider Baby, Blues Deluxe.  Four of my other favorites.  Thanx  again for the Bridge To A Better Day, it worked out perfect.  If would be cool if you share some others.
Thanx again

Re: Bridge To Better Days tab

Out of those, I know all of High Water Everywhere and Blues Deluxe.  I haven't really attempted P&S or Reconsider, but I could definetly figure those out.  I'll start with the quickest one, High Water Everywhere- there's really not much to it, no long solos like BD or P&S, so I'll tab that one out for you.

Re: Bridge To Better Days tab

I just finished working on the High Water Everywhere tab at Ultimate-guitar.com, they just need to review it and then it will be up.

Re: Bridge To Better Days tab

I'm seriously considering tabbing out Blues Deluxe- I know a lot of people would enjoy that, but that would take an amazingly long amount of time to tab it out- there's so many different little quirks to it- I know it all, but I'm not sure if I want to sit at my computer for a whole day and tab it out... I just don't really know...
