The Pixies

The Pixies - La La Love You guitar tab

From: "ROBERT JOSEPH BACKOFEN"

LA LA LOVE YOU - THE PIXIES (From the album "Doolittle")

Here are the chords for the rhythm part:

D A Em Bm G E Dm A#

e 5 5 0 2 3 0 5 6

B 7 5 0 3 3 0 6 6

G 7 6 0 4 4 1 7 7

D 7 7 2 4 5 2 7 8

A 5 7 2 2 5 2 5 8

E 5 5 0 2 3 0 5 6

I usually play the rythym part on my acoustic and the lead part on a

clean set electric + a little reverb. The song opens up with just the drums

and one of the Pixies mumbling something. I'm not quite sure who it is or

what they are saying. This is the only song that I know of, however, where

David Lovering does most of the singing.

xby = x bent to y

xdy = bring prebent to x back down to y

~ = virbrato

xsy = x slide to y
