Skankin' to the Beat

guitar tabs lyrics

Fishbone

This song is hell easy to play if you are familiar with the Ska
upstrokes. It is really based in just three chords

Intro:Ska upstrokes
A G C
e[--5-5-5-5-3-3-3-3-------------------|
B[--5-5-5-5-3-3-5-5-------------------|
G[--6-6-6-6-4-4-5-5-------------------|
D[--7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-------------------| x3
A[--7-7-7-7-5-5-3-3-------------------|

E[--5-5-5-5-3-3-----------------------|


fourth time: ska upstrokes in A only
A G
e[-5-5-5-5-3-33333---------------------|
B[-5-5-5-5-3-33333---------------------|
G[-6-6-6-6-4-44444---------------------|
D[-7-7-7-7-5-55555---------------------| x1
A[-7-7-7-7-5-55555---------------------|
E[-5-5-5-5-3-33333---------------------|

the rest of the song is pretty much the same altering between those two riffs

Exept for the part that Angelo says
"Now it's my time to say..." till the bronze part comes in and then the next refrain the
goes from
a palm muted A in ska upstrokes to a non palm muted A ska upstrokes

Enjoy your time with fishbone, skankin to the beat! ;)
