ANACRUSIS
I LOVE THE WORLD
From their impressive '91 album "Manic Impressions"
Tabbed by: Jason Mathie
Mathie@angelfire.com
Again, this song could be easily played in straight E tuning, but I'll stick
to the B tuning. This song is a cover tune, originally by New Model Army.
Comments:
Anacrusis play six-string guitars, tuned as the low strings on a seven
string guitar. So, from 6th string to 1st string: B, E, A, D, G, B.
Generally one dash is a 16th note or a 32nd note in length, so either ----
or -------- is one beat.
Notation:
|-------|
|-<7>---| Natural harmonic
|-------|
|-------|
|-------|-------||-
|*------|------*||- Repeat the section. Play twice unless
|*------|------*||- otherwise noted.
