Fugazi tab for "Suggestion"
Transcribed by Christoph Borst (mohawk@tamu.edu) sometime in 1994

Please send me comments, corrections, etc.
README: Over the past couple years I have seen several ASCII tabs for
Fugazi songs. Not until recently did I actually dig out the old
record and realize how far off most were. So, I played along
with the songs a couple times to find something that sounds better:
Think of this as an improvement to the already available tab.
I don't claim that it's perfect -- I am not a big Fugazi fan and
this is typed from memory.
Fugazi - Suggestion
Most of the song is based on the following pattern.
It is sometimes played on the D and G strings (e.g. at first),
and sometimes on the A and D strings.
beat: 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
. .
-----------------7-------5-------7\------------------------------
-0---0-0-0---0-----------------------------------3---3---5---5---
pm............ pm...........
Example of a variation, played on A and D strings:
-----------------7-----------7-----------7---7---5---6---7-------
-0---0-0-0---0-------0---0-------0---0-----------------------0---
You will find this sort of thing happening from time to time:
---------------------------
--------------------------- .
-7---------------7-------5- 7
-7---------------7-------5- 7 (or whammy bar or sliding stuff,
-5---------------5-------3- 5 what happens here varies)
---------------------------
And the more aggressive part is:
(ASCII space taken per beat is now half of previous)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------.---.-----------------------
-7---7-7-7---------------------------9---8---7-------------------
-7---7-7-7---7-------7---7---7-----------------------------------
-5---5-5-5---7-------7---7---7-----------------------------------
-------------5-------5---5---5\--0-------------------------------
have a nice day -:)
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 FUGAZI 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.
