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:

|-------|

|----| Natural harmonic

|-------|

|-------|

|-------|-------||-

|*------|------*||- Repeat the section. Play twice unless

|*------|------*||- otherwise noted.
