Std Tuning
Okay, I'm stuck on Bush again, and can't get them (it) out of my mind. Greedy Fly is one
my favorites but
I could never find a decent tab or understand. Well, I think I've thrown together a
here that is more
in line with what I hunt down tabs for (not looking for solos, I want to understand the
basics).
Intro:
(Notey Intro/Verse Riff - extremely simplified)

(Do you...)
* The Cm's are really just flair on the C chord portions, so I'm not going to list them
all the time
(too confusing). Note: the 2nd Cm is more vital, the first can be palmed to hide/mask.

*END*
That's it. It's a really fun song, but hard to interpret from just tabs if you don't
it by heart.
I use to, but that was over 10 years ago. Hopefully, I've done it enough justice to
For
details, there I recommend that Kurt_Cobain_67's tab. That guy is a Bush tab god. (Just
me 3-4
years to understand his work.)
