Aprils Kiss


Artist: Rahsaan Patterson Album: After Hours (2004) Song: April's Kiss Website: www.rahsaan.com OK, the thing about these tabs is that they're not designed for bass, so i added little certain things in between measures that are more "solo-like" to compensate for bass riffs in the song that i could never figure out. My friend gave me a good basis for the riffs, but since i don't have an electric guitar it didn't sound too right, so for all i know, this may not sound too right on an electric guitar lol. i don't know, you'll figure it out on your own. 1st Part, Intro (E)----------------------------------------| (B)--9--7--5-------------------------------| (G)-----------4-------9-----9------9--8--9-| (repeat 3 times) (D)---------------11--9--9--9--11--9--9--9-| (A)----------------------------------------| (E)----------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------| --9--7--5---------------------------------| -----------4-------9-----9-----9------11--| ---------------11--9--9--9--9--9--11--11--| ------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------| The next part I could never figure out because chords seem to sound different on electric guitars rather acoustic. My friend figured them to be like this: (E)-11--------11--------11----------------------------| (B)-12---13---12---13---12------------9--7--5---------| (G)-11--------11--------11--------9------------6--4---| (D)-11--------11--------11---9h11-----7---------------| (A)---------------------------------------------------| (E)---------------------------------------------------| All it really is holding the 11th fret with your index while your middle and ring go up and down the b string on the 12 and 13 frets, however, when you are on the 13th fret of B, you want to make sure that you only stroke the B string. The rest is pretty easy. The whole song is a variation of these tabs, so as you listen and play along, you'll be sure to figure out the best way for you to play it on your own whether you have an acoustic or an electric guitar. Have a nice summer and KEEP THE SOUL FRESH, YA'LL!!
