TENACIOUS D - "explosivo" Tablature
Official TENACIOUS D Tablature & Sheet Music »
Explosivo by Tenacious D
Lyrics and guitar transcribed by JohnnyWu2@hotmail.com ©
notes: This song contains fairly easy chords, learning the rhythm is a bit tough but just listen and play along with it until you get it. If you disagree with any of the lyrics then just change them yourself, this is the way it sounds to me.
Part I: This is pretty basic barre chord action. Warning, your hand may start to hurt or cramp by the end of this song.

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 TENACIOUS D 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.
