E|E|------------------------------ E|---------------------------------- E|---------------|| Shoot the Poets - The Cribs E|E|------------------------------ E|---------------------------------- E|---------------||
Tabbed by: Bradders Email: bradders_23@yahoo.co.uk Tuning: Standard Thanks to Cribslover from the Cribs forum for help with the solo! This is the main riff, repeated throughout the verse and intro. It changes slightly pretty much every time, but it's not worth tabbing every single note. Been perfecting this for months so I'm pretty sure it's spot on now. Capo on the second fret (frets NOT relative to capo).
E|------------------------------- B|----2------2-----2---------2--- G|------5------5-----5--5------5- D|--------3-----3-----3---------- A|-4-------4--------------------- E|------------------------6------ E|---------------| B|---2----2------| G|-----5----5--5-| D|3-----3----3---| A|-4-------------| E|---------------| E|-------------------------------- B|----2------2-2-----2--2--2------ G|------5-------5-----5------5---- D|--------3-------3------------3-- A|---------4-------------4------4- E|-2----------4------------------- E|--------------| B|2----2--------| G|--5----5--5---| D|---3----3-----| A|--------------| E|--------------|
or without a capo you can play it like this:
E|------------------------------- B|------------------------------- G|----6-5----6-5---6-5--5----6-5- D|--------3-----3-----3---------- A|-4-------4--------------------- E|------------------------6------ E|---------------| B|---------------| G|---6-5--6-5--5-| D|3-----3----3---| A|-4-------------| E|---------------|

and so on throughout the tab, just use 6th fret of G string instead of 2nd fret of B. Chorus

During the last chorus it sounds like these chords are played over the riff.

Either that or it's just loud bass. Outro
