Tripping Billies

Unread post by andreasolsson » Thu Aug 11, 2005 8:29 am

Me and a friend of mine are going to record Tripping Billies. I play the "real" version. The tab. But what can he play? Some chords? What chords are in tripping billies?
We have tried a bit but it doesnt sound so good.
Does anyone know?

Ok Im not sure if this is exactly right but I'll give it a try. Someone tell me if I get it wrong.

Nature Intro: A Asus2 A Asus2 Asus4

Intro: D/F# G D/F# G Bm A D/F# G D/F# G A Bm

Verse: A Asus4 D C Bm A Asus4 D D/F# G

Chorus: Bm A D/F# G A Bm

I am not sure if the verse is exactly right but I did the best I could. I am pretty sure about the rest though.

And those would be which strings?

I'm assuming the three top strings, but yeah.
