ANACRUSIS
PAINT A PICTURE
From their impressive '91 album "Manic Impressions"
Tabbed by: Jason Mathie
Mathie@angelfire.com
I'm not sure about the tuning on this song, it seems like it could be
more easily played with straight-E tuning, but I'll use the B tuning
anyhow. It's easy enough anyways.
Comments:
Anacrusis play six-string guitars, tuned as the low strings on a seven
string guitar. So, from 6th string to 1st string: B, E, A, D, G, B.
Generally one dash is a 16th note or a 32nd note in length, so either ----
or -------- is one beat.
Notation:
|--------|
|-4:--6:-| Time signature changes. 6/4 has 6 beats to a measure.
|-4:--4:-|
|--------|
|-------|-------||-
|*------|------*||- Repeat the section. Play twice unless
|*------|------*||- otherwise noted.
|-------|-------||-
|-------|
|-/=3=\-| Triplets. Play 3 notes where you would play 2 normally.
|-2-2-2-|
