Thickfreakness - The Black Keys
Transcribed by Ryan Wiggans
If you have any comments or questions e-mail me at wonderboy2112@hotmail.com
In the intro I think he uses a slide to make that effect, which I don't have so
you'll have to figure that out by yourself. It sounds like a lot of the slides
in this song are played with an actual slide instead of just your finger which
makes it sound better, but you can do it without one.
Key:
p=pull b=bend /=slide (2)=harmonic v=vibrato
2b>4=bend 2nd fret to 4
Order:
Intro - A - B - C - B(v2) - C - B(v3) - D - A -
Solo - C - B(v2) - C - B(v3) - D(v2) - A - Outro
