Doreen
By Howards Alias (Geetaring by Matt)
Tabbed by Jamie
N.B. The live version is played faster than the recorded version!
Key:
h/p = hammer on/pull off
^ = downstroke (on ska parts)
x = mute string
pm = palm mute chords
Matt uses a Telecaster going through a Marshall stack with
a head unit and upper cab. Use the standard Marshall clean
channel with a bit of distortion for the bits marked "clean" and
switch to the distorted channel (with footswitch) for the
bits marked distorted. The distorted channel has a lot of gain
and maybe some compression.

Wait through little bass fill, then play

This is exactly the same in the verses.
