The Pack Ad — Dannemora Blues Tab
Another extremely simple but catchy song from Vancouver's The Pack A.D. The only real trick if you're a noob like me is getting the rhythm of the main riff down and maintaining it throughout the song, since it's really what drives everything. Only my second tab ever, so feedback appreciated! Main riff (E) —————————————| —————————————| —————————————| —————————————| ———5h7———7———| ———————7—————| Repeat that through most of the song, letting the last note ring a while. Leave out the 5h7 the very first bar of the song. To avoid it becoming too boring, Becky changes volume and effects slightly throughout song. Improvise, I guess. The last time before the chorus you can substitute: —————————————| —————————————| —————————————| —————————————| ———5h7———5———| ———————7—————| Chorus A G ————————————————————————————————————————| ————————————————————————————————————————| ————————————————————————————————————————| ————————————————————————————————————————| —0—0—0—0—0—0—0—0————————————————————————| —————————————————3—3—3—3—3—3—3—3—3——————| Becky varies the G bit slightly, sometimes going back up to A for the 8th note, or trailing off and not really playing the last few.
