Dear Mr. FantasyTraffic
Intro: A G D lick--->into A chord of VERSE 1
lick
e|-----------------------------| where:
B|-----------------------------| 3-3-3 triplet
G|-----------------------------| b 1/4 or slight accent bend
D|-----------------0-----------| h hammer-on
A|----------0---3b---3b--0-----|
E|------0h3--------------------|
note: [3-3-3]
Chords are played in standard position (A: X02220, G: 320033, D: XX0232)
as you pick arpeggios up and down the strings. There is also a "tickle" of
the 3rd fret on the high e string during the D chord (making it Dsus4 for a
split second) during the verses. Listen to the song and you'll hear what I
mean.
VERSE 1:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/traffic/dear_mr_fantasy_tab.html )
[A]Dear Mister Fantasy, [G]play us a tune,
D A lick
Something to make us all happy.
[A]Do anything, take us [G]out of this gloom,
D A lick
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy.
VERSE 2:
[A]You are the one who can [G]make us all laugh,
D A lick
But doing that, you break out in tears.
[A]Please don't be sad, if it was a [G]straight mind you had,
We [D]wouldn't have known you all these [A]years.
