has anyone tabbed some devil?

[gcom007]

and does he play it baritone? I made a tab for standard but it's not really accurate, but anything else out?

[Trippin Hillbilly]

This was posted on the bridge a while ago..dunno how accurate it is cause i haven't tried it. There's a baritone version too.

yeah, I don't know if you could really get it right on standard...he plays the chorus so choppy...

[Coldchillin]

Try Ranting Thespians...

Elliot's tab is wrong.. I didn't listen to his mp3.. but I hope he plays it with different fretting than wrote.. And I think the notation is inconsistent because of the partial capo.. "0" is 3 frets away from "1" .. but whatever.. I guess we take "0" to be "open", but what if we need to play a real 1st fret note.. whatever.. anyways.. same notation.. fixed notes

you're right, my bad, I'm not used to tabbing w/ capo and just didn't pay attention at all...and 0 is open and 1 is relative to the capo...gay, I know, but that's how it works for the song. If you were to capo everything and drop the F# down a step to E, it would be a lot more difficult to play.

[PlayLikeDave]

When I saw him play it live, I was darn sure that he was sliding xx777x to xx999x. I play it in standard as an 'a' chord sliding into a 'b' chord (xx222x slide xx444x). If I had time to tab it out I would. He def arpeggios down an 'G' then 'A' barre chord. Some times I think that he might take the last 2 notes of the G barre, combine them and slide them into the A and then arpeggio the A. I am insane and in a rush so ignore this as much as you feel necessary

peace
