Subject: melody tab "The Wheel" Grateful Dead
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/g/grateful_dead/the_wheel_tab.html ]
Well I think that this may be the introrduction to "The Wheel" by The
Grateful Dead- usualy it is played this way from any bootleg you may
hear. I figured it out one day while playing with the G major and C
major scales at the first to 3rd fret- I think that Garcia loves to
play most of his song introductions on those scales
around that area of the neck - enjoy !
THE WHEEL GRATFEUL DEAD
E---------------------------------
B-------------------------------
G-------------------------------
D-----------0-------2-------0--
A--------------2--------------
E-----3--3--------------3----
the best way to play this is just to use a regualr G chord -and mess
around like playing Pink Floyds "Wish You Were Here" till you get the
melody correct.
you also can substituite the open D string for D on the 5th string at
the 5th fret, and try using the G as an open string.... enjoy !
Any feedback would be appriciated . jason
