How to read tabs?

Person: Kyle Holcombe


song: "Mean To Me"


artist: Tonic


tab: Well, my obsession with Tonic has moved me to do my first
tab...heh. If you see stuff wrong, feel free to fix it...by all means. I know, I know...this ain't the entire song. Sorry, but I just can't

get the intro. I know it's basically the same chord progression as the chorus, but I can't quite get it. Ah well...this is pretty much how Tonic played it live...I think. Sorry, no solo either.

Tuning: Capo II fret


Main riff:
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|-----------0--2--4--6--2----|
|--0--2--4-------------------|

Chorus:
(The rythm on this probably ain't exactly right on, but if you listen

to the song while you play, you'll get it)
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|--4--4-44--xx----------------------|
|--4--4-44--xx---6--6-66---444-444--|
|--2--2-22--xx---6--6-66---444-444--|
|----------------4--4-44---222-222--|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|---4--4-44--xx-------------------------------------|
|---4--4-44--xx---6--6-66---------------------------|
|---2--2-22--xx---6--6-66------------0--2--4--6--2--|
|-----------------4--4-44---0--2--4-----------------|

Behind the solo, they play the main riff once, then play the chorus part...twice, I believe

In addition to the first fret capo, tune your B string to a C to get that open sound on all the chords. It really improves the accuracy.

try tuning all strings down 1/2 a step then play: Bm, A, D, Bm, G(hold for 2 measures), Bm, A, G, fill(E-2,3,5,A-2,4,D-0,2, chorus: D, Bm, G, D, Bm, fill...that's the whole song right there...ciao baby
