CAKE - "arco arena" Tablature
Official CAKE Tablature & Sheet Music »
Arco Arena by Cake
From Comfort Eagle
Standard Tuning - Written for 1 guitar, but playable with 2 :)!
Its a pretty easy song to play, but it sounds awesome. Of course, if you have
two guitars, use distortion on one to play its corresponding parts.. and I'm
sure you can figure out when to play what if you have two guitars going at it.
There are some parts of the electric guitar that I neglected to tab out because it
plays during the acoustic (mainly in the middle of the song when the first riff
plays through again).
All riffs play smoothely into one another.. don't hesitate

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 CAKE 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.
