"The Riff" tab

This is a rough tab of "The Riff" still unsure on a few parts, but its a start.

    Pretty darn close. There's a F to a G at the end of the breakdown, too. Try using a different font like Lucida Console for tabs. Everything will line up for ya.


    P.S. This song is like my kryptonite. I can tab the eff out of strange chords, but not single notes.

    Changed the font maybe it will line up better for mobile websites. About to work on the breakdown a little bit more.

    Hey I see a few differences from your tabs. Really great start though. Im working on this trying to nail it down now.

    Looks good! Only thing I noticed was it had a drop D tuning DADGBE listed.

    Tab looks good other than I think he hits a G on the low E string to start the run before the A chord. I think it is one note short.

    also in the jam/bridge section before the outro he does the same finger transition on the last two chords of the Gaucho chorus

    Does anyone know for sure if the bridge after "Please don't leave me" / "You stay with me" on davetabs is correct? I feel like it isn't or I'm probably just playing it wrong.
