Low Rider - WAR
So there are basically 4 riffs to this song and they are all very similar.
Riff #1
G:------------------------------|
D:-------------3---3h5-3h5------|
A:-------1-3-5---5--------------|
E:--1-3-------------------------|
Riff #2
G:------------------------------|
D:-------------3---33-3h5-------|
A:-------1-3-5---5--------------|
E:--1-3-------------------------|
Riff #3
G:---------------------3h5------|
D:-------------3---3h5----------|
A:-------1-3-5---5--------------|
E:--1-3-------------------------|

Riff #4
G:------------------------------|
D:-------------3---3h5----------|
A:-------1-3-5---5-----3h5------|
E:--1-3-------------------------|
Basically I put these in order of frequency. Riff #1 is played the most and could easily
be play through the whole song. Riff #2 instead of 2 hammer-ons he hits that F (3)
twice like a stutter (instead of the 1st hamer-on). Riff #3 the last hammer-on is on the
G string and #4 it is on the A string. The first time #4 is played is right before the line
"Low rider don't use no gas now." Riff #3 is used more frequently after that as well.
Have fun and experiment. You could do a 5p3 3h5 or slide 3/5 instead of the the last
hamer-on or do a staccato 333 then the second 3h5 hamer-on.
