TENACIOUS D - "Sasquatch" Tablature
Official TENACIOUS D Tablature & Sheet Music »
Part I: All the chords in this part are muted immediately, they are very "staccato."
The last line "...his legend's ancient in..." at that point they let the chords ring more.
(Bm) A E F#
There was some scientists tryin to figure out the Sasquatch riddle
Bm A E F# G F#
Then they figured out it was a missing link.
Bm A E F#
In Search of Sasquatch... that was a kick-ass "In Search Of..."
Bm A E
with Leonard Nimoy kickin out the *JAMS*.
Bm A E F#
He captured imagination. Of people all around the globe
Bm A E F# G F#
His name was Sasquatch... so I'm told...
Bm A E F# Bm A E F# G F# E......
His legend's ancient in the ancient scribe of the indian tribe... apache tribe.
Scientists have proven that the Sasquatch is real. Take a look at the plastic cast of his
foot now you know he's real. Listen real close to the audio tape not human no you know he's
real. Couldn't be a man in a gorilla suit no ***in' way you know he's real. Real, real,
real real, real, real really real...... real.
Part II: This is the jam. JB rocks the chords and KG rocks the solo,
short but sweet, also cue Sasquatch on the drums. The chords are
different from part 1 so pay attention. All chords are barre chords here.
Bm A C G
(Solo)
e-------------------10----10--12--12^(whole step)-12--10-10-9--9--9--9--9--9--9-------
b-12-12-12-12-12-12----12-------------------------------------------------------10---7
g-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't take this personal because it's not about your playing. No, dude
your drumming is kick ass. It's just that the D, it's always just been
me and KG. And we're just not comfortable being a power trio.
Part III: This part isn't hard, just two chords......right? Well the
strumming is rather difficult. It speeds up for the vocal section,
I would practice doing it slow, then gently get faster and it will become easier for you.
Bm A
e-------------------------------
b---3----3----------2-----2-----
g-----4----4----------2----2---- Repeat each chord as necessary.
d-4----4-----4----2-----2----2--
a------(2)--------------(0)-----
e-------------------------------
I hope there's no hard feelings.
Part III (continued): This is the same as before, only faster.
Bm A Bm
Sasquatch..... we know your legend's real.
Bm A (rest) Bm
Sasquatch..... we know your love is real.
Bm A(strum) <--(strum full A chord, let ring)
Sasquatch..... you and Tenacious D, are.. real.

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.
