Artist - Matthew Good Band
Song - Carmelina
Album - The Audio of Being
Tabbed by - Alec MacDonald
~~A Word about tuning: Tune the Gb, Db, Ab, and Eb slightly above those. So each of them are in between
the flat and the real note. It's really weird, but the song sounds best like that. For the low B,
tune exactly half way between B flat and B. I know it's crazy, but no other way can you get the right
sound.

[3:13]
At this point, on the CD, the bassist has layered over top of this riff, some playing of the
1st fret on the B string. You can hear it real quiet: it plays the same
rhythm as the snare drum here.

Db|------------------------------------------------|

[3:21]
The open C string layering stops here.

(3:58) Outro
Gb|-----------------|
Db|-----------------|
Ab|2-2--------------|
Eb|------2-2--------|
B |-----------1-----| Let Ring
[4:03]
Here's more layering. Extremely quiet: I had to shove my ear against the speaker at full volume
to hear it, but it's there believe me. The final 1st fret on the B string is still ringing from
above when at this point [4:03], this is played.
Gb|----------------------------------|
Db|----------------------------------|
Ab|----------------------------------|
Eb|----------------------------------|
B |3---------------6-----------------|
The 1st fret on the B string is not played again, but it is still ringing, and at the end of
the above riff cut off the 6. Please remeber, EXTREMLY QUIET.
