Fucked for Life Dirty Projectors Post-New Attitude EP era Tabbed by Joel A. (blackrivermood@wowway.com) Sources: Daytrotter Session 5/7/2007 Pitchfork TV Special Live videos Standard tuning Capo 5 This is how they currently play the song. Long riff was stretched out to better explain counting. Try to follow the change between the longer counts and shorter counts. Also, I got the bass octaves from the Pitchfork video although he plays them in other videos, but it is harder to hear. Just listen to the track for the structure of the song. I recommend the Daytrotter session.
