Chord/Tab song: Plump

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PLUMP by Hole


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The trick here is that funky upstroke/downstroke strumming pattern which is probably the
only difficult part to playing this song. The upstroke/downstroke is on an F#m barre
chord, and the trick is to alternate between lifting your index finger off and then
placing it back on the fret (listen to the song for timing). Other than that, it's all fairly
simple chords. It sounds like Courtney Love is probably playing an open A chord on that
main riff, while Eric Erlandson's playing a barre chord. Note that during the bridge
(the "do you fake it for me" part), there is one guitar quietly strumming the chords and
another one playing arpeggios.
