Official BELLY Tablature & Sheet Music »
"Spaceman", Belly
Written by Belly
from their "Super-connected" import single
Standard Tuning
Key of A major
The Twiddle:
A
e--0--0-----------------------
B--2--2----2------------------
G--2--2----2-2----------------
D--2--0h2--2-2-----x-x--------
A--0--0----0-0-----x-x-x------
E---------------2--x-x-x------
*** No tab in the world will tell you much about how to play this twiddle.
I got the mechanics down...now you have to get the dynamics down. Finger
the A chord like this :
--|---------
--|--r------ ring finger
--|--i------ index finger
--|--m------ middle finger
--|---------
--|---------
2
and use your thumb to play the F# on the low E string <the big fat one>.
otherwise the rest of the rhythm is simple. The twiddle is played only
some of the time...it'll be obvious when.
*** I think the electric part is the same chords only played with a chorus
effect...I donno...I'm not an electric person.
(Acoustic Guitar -- clean)

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official BELLY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
