Huling El Bimbo Chords & Tabs
HULING EL BIMBO
Eraserheads
tabbed by: Neil 'Pogi' Sayoc
This song is in the key of G, using the chords: G-A7-C-G (intro &
chorus), A7-C-G (verse), Em-G-C-D (refrain). But again, there are tuning
problems. If you try to play along with the track and use these chords,
they are a bit higher. The reason is that maybe the guitars were tuned
down one semitone (i.e. Magasin).
You can (1) tune down 1 semitone to (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb) or (2) play it
in F#, using the chords F#-Ab7-B-F# (intro & chorus), Ab7-B-F# (verse),
Ebm-F#-B-C# (refrain). Or you could just forget the "i'll play along
with the track"-style and just play it in the key of G.
I suggest that you play it in G because it is more complicated to play
it F# because of all those # notes. Its also not advisable to tune down
your guitar for just 1 song then tune it again. So, just play it in G.
Intro: G-A7-C-G
Verse: A7-C-G
Refrain: Em-G-C-D
Chorus: G-A7-C-G
