One Summer Day
The Push Stars
Written by Chris Trapper
Tabbed by Andy Forssell (aforssell1@comcast.net)
------------------
In an effort to jump-start some Push Stars tabs on the web,here is a start
on One Summer Day. I will try to do more later, but please send any additions
or corrections if you have them and I will update this file with your name
and contribution.
Standard tuning (e-a-d-g-b-e)
Capo on fret 3 on the original recording. Fret 4 in most live shows.
Wherever the "^" symbol appears, the notes above are played with an upstroke.
Any notes without that symbol below them are played with a downstroke.
0 = play open
- = do not strum
Here is the basic chord progression from the intro and choruses. The chords
on this song are not too difficult, but it's the emphasis on various down and
up strokes that make it catchy and a bit tricky to learn. So that you can get
the hang of the timing, this first version below shows it played as a series of
sixteenth notes with out any up or down strokes left out.

Here is a version that shows the syncopated rhythm and the strokes that Chris
emphasizes when he messes around during the long encore performances of this
song live. Use the same timing as in the full sequence above. If you get
comfortable playing this really fast, you'll be able to recognize the places
in live shows where Chris lapses into anything from chicken scratching to"Have
Yourself A Merry Little Christmas", and then back into various forms of
the same chord sequence.
