THE BEATLES - DAY TRIPPER (Lennon/McCartney) Released as a double
A-side single w WE CAN WORK IT OUT on December 3rd
1965.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:PJVillanueva
This song was made in a haste when they were asked urgently for a
new single. The solo, a climactic crescendo, was played this time
by John, while George played a long ascending scale. Ringo plays
great fills, fours in the bass drum and snare during the 1st part
of the choruses (00:32, etc) and a very curious two sixteenth note
rebound on the 2nd (00:39, etc). Although it was supposed to be a
double a-side single, WE CAN WORK IT OUT had a greater airplay in
the end, but this track is a rave. And just listen to that third
chorus: John's falsetto melody is simply astounding.

You're tabs are great PJVILL! Thanks a bunch for this Beatles tab :)
Great tab, except you have two bars too many in the solo, there should only be 12! Take away the fourth line of the seven lines of the solo in your tab and it'll be right!
Is this for bass?
