Song: Back 'Round
Band: Wolfmother
Tuning: Drop D
Hey! This is the Song Back 'Round by Wolfmother.
This is the Sound Relief version, so it's with the
new lineup and has two guitar parts. I'll try to
tab out both and make it clear what to play for each
part. I also tabbed out how Wolfmother played it at
Andy Warhol, so if you want to play it that way,
check out the other tab version. This is complete
except for the solo. I hope you enjoy playing
this song! OK, here we go...
Just Guitar 1 (Andrew Stockdale):

(play each power chord as many times as

but you can play 16 sixteenth notes, or even
faster and more if you want!)

Ok, right before the next part, I'll call it the bridge,
Andrew does a little solo thing in the Sound
Relief version, but I won't worry about tabbing
that out.
Bridge: x1, but play the power chord several times.

Solo:
Not tabbed, but it is very close to the Andy Warhol
version from what I can tell. I can't hear it very
well because of the sound quality of the video.

And that's how Wolfmother played it at Sound Relief,
the only new song they played there. If you have
