Phish - The Inlaw Josie Wales guitar tab
So here it is. This comes from the version that was on Austin City
Limits. This song is performed in DADGAD tuning (thanks Dave!),
which is double dropped D with the addition of dropping the B to
an A. I play the bottom three strings with my thumb and the GAD
strings with my middle, ring, and pinky fingers respectively. Trey
uses his pointer finger on certain parts. If you have trouble with
this style of fingerpicking, I would recommend you buy the official
tab for Billy Breathes and try the title track. It's slower, and
it's in standard tuning so the chord shapes are more familiar (and
a sweet tune taboot!). I've notated the timing through spacing
(every four dashes equals one beat). In the case of frets higher
than 9, I put the second number where the note should fall (unless at
the very beginning of a measure). Most of this is sight verified
(I watched that two and a half minutes of tape over and over!), so
I'm pretty confident that almost all of it is right. Feel free to
email me at eric_sievers@spgl.com with questions or whatnot. Also,
please note that I have not compared this to the Farmhouse version,
(can I have my CD back, Shaun?) but I would guess there are a couple
minor differences. Have Fun! -E
*nh = natural harmonic
*ho = hammer on
*po = pull off
*sl = slide (I used this once where I couldn't fit a '/' before
the note)
