Date: Fri, 29 Dec 2000 20:29:59 -0500
From: JW4Pres@aol.com
Subject: c/cracker/movie_star.tab
Band: Cracker
Album: Kerosine Hat
Song: Movie Star
Tabbed/transcribed/figured out until fingers bled by
Dimitrios Papadimitriou (JW4Pres@aol.com or FetaD@aol.com)
Have any questions? E-mail me. The strum count is not exact, its
just there to show that you're hitting it a lot. This is an
improved version on Matt Stetler's, i hope. He uses a Dminor for the verse
but I don't believe it is. Decide for yourself. Also, I think
The main riff to this song is only three chords instead of 4. I did
however use his tab to come up with mine so thank you cause that little riff
was bugging me to death being so simple. The multiple 15s in the solo are
optional. I can hear them being hit inbetween but it is probably two guitars
recorded over each other for the effect.
