Boot


*Even though this is tabbed out in standard tuning, I think the real song is actually a half-step down. The lowest note in the chorus doesn't quite sound low enough to 100% match the song, but I hate messing with the tuning on my guitar so I just play it this way. If you want to play the song 100% correct, just tune your guitar a half step down and play the tab as shown with all notes up a fret on guitar except of course the low note (open string E) remaining an open string E.* INTRO (clean, muted - unmute & distort last four notes) E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------------------4-3-------3-------------------| D|-----------------------6-4---------6-4---------------------6-----------------| A|---6-4---------6-4---4-----7-4-444-----7-6-666-----4-444-------6-4-----------| E|-4-----7-4-444-----7-----------------------------------------4-----7-4-0-1-2-| INTRO PART 2 / CHORUS (distorted, basically same riff as intro) E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------------------4-3-------3-------------------------| D|-----------------------6-4---------6-4---------------------6-4h6-------------------| A|---6-4---------6-4---4-----7-4-444-----7-6-666-----4-444-----------6-4-------------| E|-4-----7-4-444-----7---------------------------------------------4-----7-4-0-1-2-4-| VERSE (clean, reggae-like upstrokes for the most part) Only the highest strings are played, but I'm showing the whole cords for ease of play E|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4--6-6--4-4--4-4--x2--| B|-4-4-4-4-5-5-5-5--7-7--5-5--4-4--x2--| G|-4-4-4-4-6-6-6-6--8-8--6-6--4-4--x2--|Play twice D|-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6--8-8--6-6--6-6--x4--| A|-6-6-6-6-4-4-4-4--6-6--4-4--6-6--x4--| E|-4-4-4-4--------------------4-4--x2--| BRIDGE "so when the dance gets hot..."
