Song: Cake - I Will Survive (Gloria Gaynor cover)
Album: Fashion Nugget
Tabbed by Runar B. Maeland (only my work)
Tuning: Standard (e B G D A E)
^: Half bend (one fret up)
The old file was only the bass tab.
This sounds very correct to me. I can't figure out the first solo, though.
Chords:
A5: x D5: x G5: x C5: x F5: x B5: x E: 0
x x x x x x 0
x x x 5 x x 1
x 7 x 5 3 4 2
7 5 5 3 3 2 2
5 x 3 x 1 x 0
Strumming for the E chord:
e |-----0-00-00-00--|
B |-----0-00-00-00--|
G |-----1-11-11-11--|
D |-----------------|
A |-2-2-------------|
E |-0-0-------------|
REPEAT
Chord line through the whole song (slightly distorted):
| A5 | D5 | G5 | C5 | F5 | B5 | E |
After the choruses, it's played very soft the first time.
Second guitar riff (heavily distorted):
(A5) (D5) (G5)
e |----------------------------------------33-3-3-3-3-|
B |----88-8-8-8-8-^----66-6-6-6-6-^-------------------|
G |---------------------------------------------------|
D |-------------------------------------5-------------|
A |---------------------------------------------------|
E |-5-------------------------------------------------|
(C5) (F5) (B5) (E)
e |----------------------------------------00-0-0-0-0-|
B |-55-5-5-5-5---66-6-6-6-6---55-5-5-5-5---00-0-0-0-0-|
G |--------------55-5-5-5-5---44-4-4-4-4---11-1-1-1-1-|
D |---------------------------------------------------|
A |---------------------------------------------------|
E |---------------------------------------------------|
This comes after the chord line is played 2 times in the verse.
Second solo:
e |----------------------------------------------|
B |-10-10-10-10-10-8-10-10-10-10-10-8-10-10-10-8-|
G |----------------------------------------------|
D |----------------------------------------------|
A |----------------------------------------------|
E |----------------------------------------------|
Play that part five times, then:
e |------------------------------------|
B |-9-9-9-9-9--7-----------------------|
G |---------------9--7--5--4--5-4------|
D |-------------------------------7--6-|
A |------------------------------------|
E |------------------------------------|
Then play the first part five times again, with a variation that you'll
figure out on your own. Then comes the outtro:
Am
e |----------------------------------------------5-----------5-----------5-|
B |-9-9-9-9-9--7-------------------------------5-----------5-----------5---|
G |---------------9--7--5--4--5-4------------6-----------6-----------6-----|
D |-------------------------------7--6-----7-----------7-----------7-------|
A |--------------------------------------7-----------7-----------7---------|
E |------------------------------------5-----------0-----------5-----------|
That's all, folks! Hope this'll help you.
