Carolina  (guitar tab)

Your rating:
This is the tab as it appeared on guitartabs.cc, but I didn't think to include the

tabber's name when I copied it, so whoever you are, thank you.  I've added a couple 

at

end of the tab, but they stay true to the original chords.  Have fun; this is an 

song.  And please, please, post anything else by M Ward that you know--I live on his music.

         A                                           bm

and i'm walking backwards to the place where i came from

        g6add4              A             dsus2

  this is pretty close but not 100 percent, obviously, listen to the song

  for how long to play the chords and the strumming pattern,



Okay, this guy tabbed it pretty well, so i'll just add a couple little things that sound good.



For the Dsus2 and G6add4, I usually go with a Bass-Strum-Mess Around With the High 

pattern.

For me, it looks about like this:



e---------0-----0-------0--------------0--------0-------------|

B------2-----2-----2--2---2--------2-----2--2-------2---------|

G------3-----3--------3----3-------0--------0----0------------|

D---0--0-----0--------0------------0--------------------------|

A---0---------------------------------------------------------|

E-------------------------------3-----------------------------|



...and so on.  It's not even close to a set-in-stone pattern...I think some kind of bass

and the strumming are

important, but it really doesn't matter what strings you strum or what you do with the 

strings.

And now for the Bm: at the end of each verse, he does a nice little riff on the Bm.

Lately I haven't even been barring it; I just finger it

like this, low E to high:  000432



The riff is something like this:



e----2-0-------0----2-0--------2-0-------2----2-0--------------|

B--------3-2-3----------3-0--------3-2-3----------3-2----------|

G--------------------------------------------------------------|

D--------------------------------------------------------------|

A--------------------------------------------------------------|

E--------------------------------------------------------------|



I didn't include the strumming, but your thumb should probably be doing something while 

fingers

work on the high strings.  and again, it's not set in stone.  this is just how i play 

approximately.

mess around and have fun.Added by tabs-database.com and our distinguished partners
