A four Finger picking Pattern is used that isn't easy Peter Paul and
Mary used it very often.
it always sounds like: dum-dudum-dudum dum-dudum-dudm
You Play it:
T;I;M;T;R;I T;I;M;T;R;I.....
R R
Or you can play it continuously: Dum dudum dedudum dedudum dedum
T;I;M;T;R;I;M;T;R;I;M;T;R,I T;I;M;T;R;I;M;T;R;I;M;T;R,I
R R
Here Both Versions are used
Capo 2nd Fret
First strum this chord: -07500
(In case you like Metallica this chord was used in the call of the ktulu)
Then Play the first Part 4 Times:
e-|-0-------------------------------|-0------------|-------------|
B-|-----------0--------0-------0----|----------0---|-0-----------|
G-|------5--------5-------5---------|------5-------|---1--2------|
D-|----7--------7-------7-------7---|----7-------7-|-----------2-|
A-|-0------0--------0-------0-------|-0------0-----|-0-2--0------|
E-|---------------------------------|--------------|-------------|
When you've played it 4 times comes the other part:
e-|-0-----------------------------|-0-----------|--------------|
B-|-----------3--------3------0---|---------1---|-0h1------1---|
G-|-----0h2------0h2------0h2-----|-----2-------|------2-------|
D-|----3--------3--------3------3-|---2-------2-|----2-------2-|
A-|-0------0--------0-------0-----|-0-----0-----|-0------0-----|
E-|-------------------------------|-------------|--------------|
e-|-0-----------------------------|-0-----------|-0------------|
B-|-----------3--------3------0---|---------0---|-------3------|
G-|-----0h2------0h2------0h2-----|-----1-------|--------------|
D-|----3--------3--------3------3-|---2-------2-|----2-------2-|
A-|-0------0--------0-------0-----|-2-----2-----|-2-----2------|
E-|-------------------------------|-------------|--------------|
Now you play the firs part again 4 times put it has a slight Variation
e-|-0------------------------------|-8--------7---|-0-----------|
B-|-----------0--------0------0----|--------------|-------------|
G-|------5--------5-------5--------|------5-------|---1---2-----|
D-|----7--------7-------7------7---|----7-------7-|-----------2-|
A-|-0------0--------0------0-------|-0------0-----|-0-2--0------|
E-|--------------------------------|--------------|-------------|
Now you play the 2nd part again then again the first part with the
Variation then again the 2nd part and then again the first but without
the variation
then strum the chord again add some harmonics from the top string and
you've got it!!
Oh don't forget to say "This is the fairy story of the Tangerine Puppet"
at the start.
