Band: Booker T. and the MGs (Memphis Group)
Song: Green Onions
Tabbed by: Charles Mead

Green onions is without a doubt the most famous MG's song, it's been used in countless films and adverts. The main riff is the bass riff and is very simple, it is as follows:

G:||----------------------|----------------------|
D:||----------------------|----------------------|
A:||----------------------|----------------------|
E:||-1-1-1/4-6--1-1-1/4-6-|-1-1-1/4-6--1-1-1/4-6-|

G:||----------------------|----------------------|
D:||----------------------|----------------------|
A:||-1-1-1/4-6--1-1-1/4-6-|----------------------|
E:||----------------------|-1-1-1/4-6--1-1-1/4-6-|

G:|------------------------|---------...
D:|------------------------|---------...
A:|-3-3-3-3/6-8-1-1-1-1/4-6|---------...
E:|------------------------|1-1-1/4-6...

Repeat as many times as necessary. This is the only part of the song that is consistant throughout. When playing the F and A# in this tune you can use 4 notes rather than 3, differing on what version you've heard of the song.
