Subject: Cake Tablature(The Distance)
The tabber before me almost had it all right, but there were a few minor
problems with it, so I decided to send them to you. Mine is easier to read
too, because I do not put in the rythym parts. You guys are smart enough to
do it yourselves out there.
First Part: throughout verses repeating over and over
Trumpet part(not played by guitar, but it sounds cool!):
Chorus:
Tab:"The Distance" by Cake
Album: Fashion Nugget
This is a really good song of an incredible album. I'm calling this one the biggest surprise album of 1997. I'm pretty sure this tab is accurate, because I saw them play it live here(Montreal) in December.
Verse Riff(Clean tone)
Do that as many times as needed, then skip the part with the trumpet until this:
Chorus(Distorted)
There's also this part, which is thrown in here and there:
Post-Chorus(Distorted)
! !
I'm not sure if this is done with a hammer-on or not.
That's all the guitar in the song. I just want to mention that according to an interview with their guitarist, Cake gets their unique sound by buying the cheapest, beat-up equipment they can find. Cool, eh!
