"Right Now" - Van Halen (piano arr. for guitar)
Here are some parts of "Right Now" that have been arranged for guitar (basically the
first part of the song).
It is a good idea to put a capo on the fifth fret, but I tabbed then without a capo
(fifth fret means open string with the capo).
Here is the intro. When applied to piano, it sounds just like the CD:
e--------5-----8-----10-----8---5---- Play this over and over again and
B--8--------------------------------- VERY fast...
G----7-----7-----7------7-----7---7--
D------5-----5-----5------5----------
A------------------------------------
E------------------------------------
Then the cymbals kick in. I don't know the exact name of some of the chords with
additions, so I just put the root chord above each measure.
