Elastica - Line Up guitar tab
Line Up - Elastica (on the album 'Elastica')
Tabbed by Steve Morley.
Okay, this one has two distinct guitar parts, plus a killer bass line...
The lyrics are easy to make out - plus someone else has posted them, so here's the music!
Guitar part 1: This is played more-or-less all the way thru
'A'-shape bar chords
B, D, C#, E, G (yes, on the 10th fret!)
Guitar part 2:
[------------------][------------------]
[--8--------8------][-13-------13------]
[----10-------10---][----11-------11---]
[-----9-9------9-9-][----12-12----12-12]
[------------------][------------------]
[------------------][------------------]
x2 x2
[------------------][------------------]
[-12-------12------][-15-------15------]
[----10-------10---][----13-------13---]
[----11-11----11-11][----14-14----14-14]
[------------------][------------------]
[------------------][------------------]
x2 x2
Then while the 1st guitar is playing G, the second guitar is silent.
Bass:
A moveable pattern that follows the chords of guit.1
-----------------------------|------------------------------|
-----0---2-----------0---2---|-----3---5------------3---5---|
-2-2---2---2---0-2-2---2---2-|-5-5---5---5---3--5-5---5---5-|
-----------------------------|------------------------------| etc.
When playing over the G chord, the following happens...
------------------------------------12/7---|
-------8----10--------------8----10--------|
-10-10---10----10---8-10-10---10-----------|
-------------------------------------------|
Play with that slide... I'm doing this from memory!
Final touches: At the end of the chorus (after the second run thru with "Line up in line, line up in line is all I remember...") there are some chord stabs which take up an extra half a bar...
These are: x x 10 12 14 14
Enjoy a Great British classic...
