As an incentive, here's the song mostly TABbed out. I still need the lyrics.... Thanks to whomever first sent me the TAB, since that's where I learned much of the parts (also from my guitar teacher). As is usual with TV's stuff, you gotta listen closely to catch the rhythms--they're not at all straightforward. Marquee Moon, from the album Marquee Moon Written by Tom Verlaine Recorded by Television TAbbed by Jay Verkuilen (who got it from some other people--if I knew who you were, I wouldn't have to post this again :) Key: D mixolydian (D E F# G A B C). Riff: Bm Tom: ---7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7------- ---7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- Richard: ------------------------------------------- ---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3----------- ---4---4---4---4---4---4---4---4----------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- D7 ------------------------------------------- ---7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7------- Tom: ---7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7 p 5 h 7------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- Richard: ------------------------------------------- ---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3----------- ---2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2----------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- I don't think I've got the timing right above, so you'll have to listen real closely. Richard's part goes for a beat or a part of a beat before Tom's. Most of the song is this riff. The second solo (jam) is over that. Little scale part: Play 3x last time Tom: --------------10-8-7------|-----10-8-7------------- ------7-8-10-7------10-8-7|-7-8--------10-8-7------ --sl/9--------------------|--------------------9-7- --------------------------|------------------------ --------------------------|------------------------ --------------------------|------------------------ Richard: Em C Am Am I misremember the chords under this scale, so check them. Then the Life in the hive... part (listen to vocal): |D C|, with someone playing notes from the D mixolydian scale (Tom?), ended with Gmaj7 chord and the following riff (Tom?): Tom: ------------8-p-7-------------------------- ------------------7------------------------ --------------------7---------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- The first solo (Tom) is a set of three scales with pauses in between, played with alone, each in D mixolydian. The first starts on 15th fret D on the B string and ends on 9th fret F# on the A string. It covers all notes in between. The second starts on 10th fret A on the B string and goes to 5th fret D on the A string (then slides to 9th fret F#). Listen closely to the song to catch the repeats. I don't have a guitar here, so I can't check it to be sure and can't exactly remember what to do here. :( The third part is: v Tom: -----19-19-19-19-17-15-17-19-17-15-17-19-17-15-17---22---- ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ("v" indicates staccato with pause) Tom: ------------8-p-7-------------------------- ------------------7------------------------ --------------------7---------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- Second verse..., same as the first. Second solo is over the main riff and is in D mixolydian. It starts slowly and builds to a massive climax. The solo is one massive improv--Tom goes pretty crazy through this part. Afterwards there are some chords, but I can't remember what they are--nothing complicated, however. |
