Sonic Youth Chords & Tabs

Version: 1 Type: Tab

Winners Blues Tab

Song: Winner's Blues
Artist: Sonic Youth
Source: http://www.sonicyouth.com/mustang/tab/
        tabbed by chris lawrence (mustang@islandnet.com)
TUning: EEBEG#B (Acoustic)

To tune: Tune the high E down to the open B string. Then tune the B
string to the 1st fret of the G string. Tune the G string to the 2nd
fret of the D string, tune the D string to the 2nd fret of the A string,
tune the A string to low E, and leave the E the same.

In this song, he frets notes going up one string, and lets all the other
strings ring out, with random picking. So I won't show how to pick it,
etc. because it is pretty random.

So, basically he picks low notes all the way through, but the high notes
are the melody, and are the most noticeable.

That's about it. It may not look right, because I haven't figured out
how to show rhythm in tabs, but those are the right chords. So have
fun trying to figure it all out.
