Papa

Papa - Roach - Snakes guitar tab

Everything's there, listen to the song for an exact order.

The timing's there mostly.

(note, there are four beats to a bar, hence 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &)

Drop D tuning, high-low: EBGDAD

note, 'H' stands for 'hammer on'

eg:

1 2

-----|-----------

-----|-----------

-----|-----------

-2H3-|-3H2-------

-2H3-|-3H2-------

-2H3-|-3H2-------

1) Play the E chord with your first finger and hammer onto

the F chord with your second.

2) Play the F chord with your second finger and hammer off

leaving the first on the E chord.
