Text File

Artist:Reuben
Song:Return Of The Jedi
Album:Very Fast Very Dangerous
Guitarist:Jamie Lenman
Tabbed by:Duncan S/reelbigfish432

OK, this is the third tab and in my opinion the only fully complete one, so let me know 
you get on.
Epic song from the awesome Reuben who are unfortunately on `Indefinate Hiatus` so we 
know if we'll be hearing from them again.

This song is in a weird tuning which is, high to low:
B
G
F#
C#
G#
C#

Also, this song doesn't really have verses or a chorus, so I've put the lyrics so you 
which bit is which, but it should be easy to figure out.

Tab Legend
. (under notes/chords) - palm mute
~ - tremelo/vibrato
h - hammer on
p - pull off

note:for some bits, the pattern is of strumming is repeated so to save space I've just 
the pattern once then the chords

note:I know the tuning down the side is wrong, but it would be awkward to change it, so 
tuning at the top of this page is the RIGHT tuning
