Text File

Song: Beast of Burden
Artist: Rolling Stones
Album: Some Girls


I've seen a lot of the other versions weren�t that close to the recording.
The intro actually is right, and there�s two other guitars during the song.

The intro could be played two different ways, but are the exact same notes


Here�s the intro two different ways:

    D   E           B     C#m        A

e|--2-/-4---4-4�-x--2--x--4�(4)x------------|
B|--3-/-5---5-5�-x--4--x--5--5-x-----5------|
G|--2-/-4---4-4�-x--4--x--6--6-x-4h6--------|
D|------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------|

or
    D   E           B     C#m        A

e|------------------------4�(4)x-------------|
B|--7-/-9---9-9--x--7--x--5--5-x-----5�------|
G|--7-/-9---9-9--x--8--x--6--6-x-4h6---------|
D|--7-/-9---9-9--x--9--x---------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------|

The slide from the D to E could be a hammer-on. (index to ring finger)


There's two other guitars that do leads over this guitar, and the chords change during 
"am i hard enough part." But that's pretty much it.
