Ac Dc - Fling Thing guitar tab
FLING THING
tabbed by Thomas Risan Olsen
This tab has been on the net since March 1996. But when I looked at it now
(June 1999) I figured that it needed some re-formatting and changing.
This song is more or less instrumental. But on the studio version
you can hear Bon Scott and possibly some others singing the lyrics
which are the same as the original Scottish song "Loch Lomond" in
the background. There's a live version of this song existing too,
from the Apollo in Glasgow, Scotland, where many of the songs
featured on the album 'If You Want Blood (You've Got it)' were recorded.
Notes about the Riffs:
* Riff 1: might be G5-barre chord
* Riff 2: sounds ok, but might not be correct
* Riff 3: the "Bonny" (a.k.a. "Loch Lomond") part.
* Riff 4: haven't figured this out yet, but it is played by the guitar
in the left channel, and the fades the song out together with
the bass guitar
Other things to be aware of (perhaps):
* figured this out on an acoustic guitar
* the original tab I did had Riff 1 in A, now I believe it's in G
* Riff 3 is written in A and will have to be transposed down to G
2 = 0, 4 = 2 etc...
* The studio version I have was added as a bonus-track to the
"Live From The Atlantic Studios" - bootleg CD.
