REVEREND HORTON HEAT - "i cant surf" Tablature
Official REVEREND HORTON HEAT Tablature & Sheet Music »
This is an awesome instrumental! I first heard it off a little
compilatin called MOM: MUSIC FOR OUR MOTHER OCEAN featuring a whole
slew of sweet bands. Anyways, I always wanted to be able to play
this song so I sat down one day (or maybe I was standing...I can't
remember!) and I figured out what I could. So...uhhh...here is what
my little ears and brain deciphered from the recording! ENJOY!
Intro:
(just keep picking the open A until the
drums kick in then play the main rythmn riff 4 times!)

I haven't figured out the solo yet, so all I have are the main
sections. It's best if you have a recording of this song to follow
with my uhh...little "interpratation."

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 REVEREND HORTON HEAT 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.
