Coquet Coquet Chords & Tabs
Coquet Coquet
By Of Montreal
Transcribed by Mouse aka Leatherface74
New song from Kevin Barnes. Heard the bassline and thought it needed to be tabbed, then
figure I needed to
tab the rest of this kickass song. I tried to get the intro riff as best as I could but
played really
messy on the recording so it might not be 100% right. My suggestion is to just get the
of it and riff
around the G string. Also, this is a long tab. I tried to conserve space as best as
but also
transcribe every little nuance and variation, but be warned this tab will probably rape
printer.
Legend:
(5)- Ghost Note: A note in parenthesis that is barely heard in a recording
or represents a note that is supposed to ring for longer than one measure.
B - Bend (I've placed the fret number of the pitch being bent to next to the note.)
Pb - Pre-Bend: The note is bent to a pre-determined pitch before it is
picked.
Pbr- Pre-Bend Release: The note is bent to a predetermined pitch before it
is picked and is released to its original pitch.
/ - Slide: If I have to explain this one you shouldn't be playing this
song.
H - Hammer-on
Br - Bend-Release: Bend note to a pitch then release it to its original
Pitch.
