HEY JOE by Hendrix
First tune all your strings down a half-step. Then…
h p
E|-0-0-0————|—————-|—————|-
B|-3-5-3————|—————-|—————|-
G|——-2-0———|—————-|—————|-5
D|————2——2|—5—-5—4—2|——7——7—|-5
A|—————2—|—5—-5—4—2|-7-9—7-9—7|-3
E|————-0—-|-0—-0—0—-0|—————|-0
^
Let ring
After the intro it just goes into this progression:
C G D Am E5 E5 (Em7 or what ever, you can alter it)
If you play along with the song you`ll get the timing down. The «h» and «p»
are for «h»amer on and «p»ull off.
see ya

Ok I`ll just give you a flavour here with the intro :
E—0—-0——————0—————————0————
B—3/5—3——————0—————————0————
G———-4/2—0———-1—————————1————
D——————2——-2——4/5—4/5—4—2——————-
A————————2———4/5—4/5—4—2——————-
E———————0———0——0——0——-0——0———-
E———————-
B———7——7——-
G———7——7——-
D—-7h9—7h9—9—-
A———————-
E———————-
The rest is :
C G D A E
repeated and repeated…..
Obviously there are a lot of bits played between the chords to liven it
up. The two riffs at the end of the intro bit are used quite a few times
-the first one is the 4/5 slide on the A and D strings
4/5
-the second is the bit at the 7th and 9th frets on the second line of tab
Then there`s that run played in octaves on bass and guitar.
The Bass tab looks exactly the same as the guitar tab (ignoring B and E
strings !)
