Parks And Recreation Theme Chords & Tabs
Parks And Recreation Theme Tab
This is the theme arranged for solo guitar.
Time signature 4/4, feel out the tempo.
Each bar starts with a chord, where the bass note is played first as a
quarter note and the rest as another quarter note. It sounds better if you play
the second half staccato by lifting your hand from the fretboard (not by
dampening with you pick hand). So for example the first C:
Q Q H
E||---------------------|
B||-------1-------------|
G||-------0-------------|
D||---------------------|
A||--3------------------|
E||---------------------|
^ ^
| - Suppress the note so it sounds like an eighth note,
| duration remains the same
- Let ring and suppress at the same time as described above
Here's the stuff, enjoy!
