Nike Cycling Commercial (link included) - Guitar Tab

Post by ElGuitarrista »

So I was totally into watching the Tour de France coverage this year. The Nike Cycling commercial seemed to air every commercial break and I got hooked on the guitar riff. Can anyone tab it?

You can see the commercial here:

No idea, but i think it sounds cool. Also, it really gives an emotional feeling to the commercial

i dont know how to write tabs
but basically its just messin with Em, then G

when you start the Em chord you do this

E :------------
B :-----------
G :-----------
D :-------0---
A :--0h2-----
E :----------0

its basically an emphasis on the bass notes and lightly strumming the higher strings

Thanks... that seems to be right on. Amazing how you can do so much with such a simple little riff.
