E|E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|| RIOT VAN - ARCTIC MONKEYS E|E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|| Band: Arctic Monkeys Song: Riot Van Album: Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not (2006) Tabbed by: skatersic666 Tuning: STANDARD (E A D G B e) Listen to the CD to get the strumming/timing correct. Any corrections i will be happy to change. Strum the chords lightly and kind of rake them if you get what I mean to give them the effect used in the song For the solo, use sligh distortion and i tink either a tremolo or vibrate effect (but im not 100% certain about that) In the chorus between the C#m to the Bm you can slide down.
