Official SUBLIME Tablature & Sheet Music »
Song: Chick on my Tip
Artist: Sublime
Album: Second Hand Smoke
Tabbed by: Boy Wonder
This is a sweet song that might look familiar to anybody with knowledge of blues.
As always, you can expect Eric to improvise throughout the entire song but these are the
main parts.

Secondary Riff- this is a very common blues shuffle bass line.
If you not ever played shuffle bass you may struggle with the rhythm.
The notes are played long-short, long-short and so on. It may help to say
humpty- dumpty as you play to get the rhythm.

As I said, I have not the ear to pick up all the variations. This should help you get started.
Happy playing,
Boy Wonder
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 SUBLIME 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.
