Band: The Dandy Warhols
Song: Mohammed
Tabbed by: Thom
To get this sounding perfect, 'as recorded' you should tune down something
like a quarter of a step, but it sounds spot on in regular tuning anyway.
The chord progression, throughout the song is; (Em/D/A, Em/D/A, Em/D/A/D/A)
Intro: The first minute of the song is drums and effects.
At about 1:10 the acoustic guitar starts picking from the chords, within the
progression and Pete plays this lead:
RIFF 1:
Verse One:
[Em]Again and again[D], I get[A] up and say
[Em]I only wa[D]nt to get it [A]right,[Em]
I only wa[D]nt to do the [A]right thing[D]
who are these [A]demons, i ask myself
(Riff 1) (with verse chords)
Verse Two:
I [Em]won't be today,[D] I'm a[A]lone again[Em]
no one can [D]make that [A]alive, [Em]
no one can [D]say they're [A]better, not when[D]
all this f[A]reedom you get is a lie
(Riff 1) with chords
Instrumental: comprising of the chord progression, strumed and picked.
Riff 2:
Outro: Chord progression with the following riff repeated and faded out from around 3:30.
Riff 3:
