Status Quo - 4500 Times guitar tab
4500 Times
Status Quo
Hello 1973
Greg Harper webmaster at tabs-database.com.com
I can play it without a retune!!
My mate Ant asked me how you play the
weird guitar parts following my version
of the chords-just worked it out.
This isn't how Rick plays it but its the
closest you can get without a retune.
I love this song. I've done enough tabs of it!
h - hammer on
p - pull off
b - bend string
r - release bend
/ - slide up
\\ - slide down
v or ~ - vibrato
t - right hand tap
x - play 'note' with heavy damping

Lots of people wishing they'd been there
No-one knowing just how long it would last
But I'm sitting still here in my chair
Be my friend, be my friend
