Red Tail Lights


Standard tuning. This is my first tab, so a few bits might be a little sketchy and I apologise if they are. Also, I've simplified the song extremely; I haven't managed to work out any of the lead yet, so I apologise for that too. I think it's reasonably accurate, and I love the song, so I hope this helps. Verse 1 and Intro. You're waiting in the car as I pull in.... e|-------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------| This is only played through once for G|-7777-5555-33333333----------55555555| the intro, but twice during the D|-7777-5555-33333333-33333333-55555555| actual verse. A|-5555-3333-11111111-33333333-33333333| E|-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-11111111-xxxxxxxx| Bridge. Too little, too late, too bad that we can't save it... e|------------------------| B|------------------------| Please be aware, that here, the '1' is actually G|-33--3-55--5-77--7-11--1| supposed to be a '10'. This is my first tab, D|-33--3-55--5-77--7-11--1| so I'm not sure how to fit in a double digit A|-11--1-33--3-55--5-88--8| number. There's quite a lot of par-muting E|-xx--x-xx--x-xx--x-xx--x| in this section, but you're going to have to work that out yourselves. This is repeated twice. Chorus. Girl, I swear I wasn't runnin` around... e|------------------------------------| This is repeated twice in the B|------------------------------------| chorus. Also, I'm not sure of G|----------55555555-77777777-33333333| the second chord, but it seems to D|-33333333-55555555-77777777-33333333| fit okay. A|-33333333-33333333-55555555-11111111| E|-11111111-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx| Red tail lights in the pouring rain... e|------| B|------| Hold this note until the end of the bar. G|-33333| D|-33333| A|-11111| E|-xxxxx| Verse 2. e|-------------------| B|-------------------| G|-7777-5555-33333333| This is played through once before the actual verse D|-7777-5555-33333333| starts. A|-5555-3333-11111111| E|-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx| And baby just roll the window down... e|-------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------| G|-7777-5555-33333333----------55555555| D|-7777-5555-33333333-33333333-55555555| A|-5555-3333-11111111-33333333-33333333| E|-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-11111111-xxxxxxxx| The chorus is played next (tabbed above), without the bridge. After the chorus is a small guitar solo (which I haven't tabbed - sorry!). During the solo, this is played through twice: e|-------------------| B|-------------------| G|-7777-5555-33333333| D|-7777-5555-33333333| A|-5555-3333-11111111| E|-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx| Next is the bridge again (tabbed above)and the chorus (also tabbed above). Then for the next part, this is played through 4 times: Too little, to the pouring rain... e|-------------------| B|-------------------| G|------5555-33333333| D|-3333-5555-33333333| A|-3333-3333-11111111| E|-1111-xxxxxxxxxxxxx| Verse.
