Andrew W.k - Party Hard guitar tab

Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2002 10:43:29 -0500

From: Chris Clark

Subject: w/wk_andrew/party_hard.tab

Artist: Andrew W.K.

Title: "Party Hard"

Album: "I Get Wet"

Original tab by: Amar Gogna

Revised by: Chris Clark

Tab: guitar

Tuning: Standard

The original tab submitted by Amar Gogna

didn't quite capture the Slade-meets-Frankenstein scope and grandeur

of this epic stomp. This is the absolute 100% correct version for

those compelled to perform the feel-good hit of this summer.

Downstroke everything with extreme prejudice, and shake head

frenetically as required.

It is not possible to play this song loud enough.

EEEEE B AAA AbAbAbAb F#F#F#F#F# C# BBBBB Eb

After starting on E(open), jump up to B(7th fret barre) and slide

down to A(5th fret barre) for the first part, then use the B(2nd fret

barre) for the second B after the C# and before the Eb. You can slide

the Eb up to the E(7th fret barre) for the start of the next line,

but don't lose the rhythm if you head back down to E(open). Watch

out for the tricky jump at the end of the second line.
