All About Us by The American Analog Set ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ALL ABOUT US - American Analog Set ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Keith Email: waxnwane1@spamnobueno.yahoo.com Tuning: Standard ::Intro/Verse - power chords - slide cleanly from one to the next - 5th & 6th string with thumb & forefinger, pluck the open D & G strings with index. it's easier, and sounds ok, to not complete the F (2nd fret, 3rd string). G A F G A F G A F G E F E ---------------------------------------------------------------| B ---------------------------------------------------------------| G --------2------------2-0--------2----------2-------------------| D ----------0------------------------0---------------------------| A --5--7--3------5--7--3----5--7--3----5--2--3-------------------| E --3--5--1------3--5--1----3--5--1----3--0--1-------------------| During verse, the last E is replaced by an A until the last measure ::section between verses ("I'll be the boy in the band...") -alternates between the G & F on the 4th, 5th & 6th string (3rd & 1st frets): G A D --------| A --5--7--| E --3--5--| - end on G, then back to intro/verse tab above ::Riff: (after "...it's all about us.") - play twice there's something in between these two - can't make out the guitar, think it might be G to F to E power chords?

The slides are more pronounced, too. Pedal the D/G/B string against the chords (time to the snare). Sounds best if you play the power chords with your thumb and pluck the D/G/B strings with a finger. :: 3 times like this, last one finishes with open G (3rd string) instead of D: E -------------------------| B -------------------------| G -------------------------| D --0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0----| A -5-7-3-7-5-5-2-3-5-3-----| E -3-5-1-5-3-3-0-1-3-1-----| :: keyboards have started - the open G's start to work in more (first measure is below, eventually you're almost toggling between G & D - then almost all G's, then even a B (2nd string) every now & then. all the notes sound good together, so don't worry about playing them perfectly - just get brighter & darker as it sounds like you should E -------------------------| B -------------------------| G ------------0--------0---| D --0-0-0-0-0---0-0-0------| A -5-7-3-7-5-5-2-3-5-3-----| E -3-5-1-5-3-3-0-1-3-1-----| www.TAB6.com
