Bob Marley - Stir it up
Tabbing by Dannie Jensen, Noxin@dr.com
This is one of the ways you can play this song. An easy nice little practise-thingy.
You newbies out there should try playing this over and over, really a nice little
exercise. I'm almost a teacher, so take my word on it and put some effort in it.
This is my first attempt at tabbing:
A A D E
e|---0-------------0-------------2------------0-------------------------
b|---2-------------2-------------3------------0-------------------------
g|--2-------------2-------------2------------1--------------------------
d|----------------------------0-----------------------------------------
a|0-------------0-------------------------------------------------------
e|-----------------------------------------0----------------------------
Or play it like this: (neat little exercise thingy too)

d|-----------------------------0----------------------------------------

x2 x2 x2 x2
Just those 4 chords, over and over again :)
The idea is to fool around with the rythm and just put your heart into it.
Create some tourself, there's probably hundreds of ways you could play this
great reggae beat
Oh yeah, almost forgot; a great thank you goes out to Brian Davies for supplying
the chords in the first place. Here's a quick chord-definition to play it the
Bob Marley way....hard on the fingers though:
A D E
e|---3-------------3-------------5--------------------------------------
b|---3-------------5-------------7--------------------------------------
g|---4-------------5-------------7--------------------------------------
d|---5-------------5-------------7--------------------------------------
a|---5-------------3-------------5--------------------------------------
e|---3-------------3-------------5--------------------------------------
Have fun! Dannie
