Here is the intro to Tripping Daisy’s Raindrop. I didn’t actuall figure
all of this out, it was mostly David Lowenfels([email protected]), but
I’m posting it and adding a few of my own ideas of how it is played. The
first thing to know is that the tuning is different, the high e string is
tuned down to a D. There are two guitars playing slightly different
things, making the song sound really cool:
Guitar 1
D-3-3-3—3-3-3-8-8-8-8 3-3-3—3-3-3-8-8—8—8
B-3-3-3—4-4-4-9-9-9-9 then 3-3-3—4-4-4-9-9-11-11
G-3-3-3—3-3-3-8-8-8-8 3-3-3—3-3-3-8-8—8—8
Guitar 2
D-3—3-3-8—8—8—8
B-3—3-3-11-11-11-11
G-3—3-3-8—8—8—8
That’s what I have from memory. I’ll try and figure out the rest, but
that is probably the coolest part of the song. Mike Farmer
transcribed this, David Lowenfels
figured it out(see address above).
