The Roots f. Cody Chesnutt - The Seed 2.0 Tabbed By: Marcus Ryan It is important to get the strumming pattern down on the main verse. This is the electric guitar part, the guitar is at a twangy pitch. On the second Am you don't have to strum the full chords, just a quick strum because you will be changing to the Dm. Am Dm E------------1-1----------------1-1------------------| B-1---x-1-1--3-3--------1-x-1-1-3-3------------------| G-0h2-x-2-2--2-2--------2-x-2-2-2-2------------------| D-0h2-x-2-2-------------2-x-2-2----------------------| A----------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------| [Verse 1: Black Thought] Knocked up 9 months ago And what she finna have she don't know She want neo-soul, this hip-hop is old She don't want no rock-n-roll She want platinum or ice or gold She want a whole lotta somethin' to fold If you a obstacle she just drop ya cold Cuz one monkey don't stop the show Little Mary is bad In these streets she done ran E'er since when the heat began I told the girl look here Calm down I'ma hold your hand To enable you to peep the plan Cuz you is quick to learn And we can make money to burn If you allow me the latest game I don't ask for much, but enough room to spread my wings And the world finna know my name Again for the chorus it is important to get the strumming down.

I don't know if the song is actually two guitars, or if they just dubbed over the version with a second guitar in the recording. but either a bass plays the root notes of these chords, or a guitar could play this.
