ERASE/REWIND

The Cardigans

from the album ?Gran Turismo? (1998)

IMPORTANT!! READ THIS FIRST!!

There are a few tabs for this song already in existence, but

unfortunately most of them are inaccurate. I?ve noticed that several of them

make the mistake of tabbing out what is actually a keyboard, which is played

in a higher octave than the guitar part. The guitar plays basically the same

riffs but in a lower octave, which, combined with the keyboard, gives the

song its overall sound. I?ve worked out what I believe to be the most

complete and accurate tab for this song that exists to date. I?ve

incorporated both the guitar and keyboard parts for those of you who want to

try playing it using two guitars.

The lines of tab for ?Guitar I? are the normal guitar parts, played on an

acoustic. The tab for ?Guitar II? is a guitar arrangement of what the

keyboard plays - notice how during the main riff it is basically doubling

the guitar riff but at a higher octave. And finally, the chords listed below

each line of tab represent the overall tonality of the song created by the

synthesizer in the background.

** GUITAR I = Acoustic Guitar **

** GUITAR II = Keyboard arranged for guitar **
