pssh, i had this shit tabbed out an hour ago. ;)

Code: Select all

Dave Matthews Band
American Baby
Tabbed by Pat McInnis

Mess around with that first chord. It's all in the rhythm.
E-----------------------
B-----------------------
G-------7-----6---4--4--
D-----------------x--x--
A----5--------4---2--2--
E--7-----(7)--5---3--3--

"Stay American baby..."
I think that 3 is included in the chord (*). Also, you can't hear shit during this part, so take this with a grain of salt, sorry. I really don't know what's going on here.
E-------------
B--3*---------
G--4----7--6--
D--x----0--x-- Repeat
A--2----5--4--
E--3----7--5--

"I hold on to you..."
E-----------------------------------------------
B-----------------------------------------------
G----------------6h7-6---------------6h7-6-7/9--
D------7---9---------------7---9----------------
A----9---9-----9---------9---9-----9------------
E--7---------7---------7---------7--------------

Y'all sound like tools.

Thanks for the tabs though.
