Song: Reebok Commercial Band: Blink 182 Album: Buddah (?) XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Tabbed by Joe "JiNx" Chemo - alias "Johnny Bass" (Bassist of Duct Tape - http://ducttape.cjb.net) If you have any questions or comments mail me at: jinxr0x0r@hotmail.com THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! NO QUESTIONS ASKED. Reasons that should make you believe its right: 1) I looked it over and played with it about 10 times 2) I love this song 3) Look at the detail! 4) I don't like hate mail. Key: ^ - hit or pull off * - hold on note Comments: The song really isn't this long, but there are a few small variations which I tabbed out to make it clear. Listen to the song with your bass way up, it's easy to hear the changes. INTRO: The song starts with a wicked drum intro (except for the part where he times his bass drum beat badly - I can't believe they recorded it) Then it starts off with a distortion fading guitar with the bass 1st time: G:-------------------------------------------------- D:--0000-2222-4444-5555-7777-55^7^5--4444-22^4^2---- A:-------------------------------------------------- E:-------------------------------------------------- 2nd time: - This is not the same thing, you'll hear the change (^ means hit on the note, or pull off, whichever, you'll see) G:-------------------------------------------------- D:--0000-2222-4444-5555-7777-55^7^5--44^55-22^4^2--- A:-------------------------------------------------- E:-------------------------------------------------- 3rd time (repeated twice) - Yes this is different, and its noticeably different. G:-------------------------------------------------- D:--0000-2222-4444-5555-7777-55^7^5--44^5-222^4^2--- A:-------------------------------------------------- E:-------------------------------------------------- Then it stops for Scott (the old drummer) to do a roll on one of the cymbals (crash?) Bass does: (* means hold on the note) G:------------------------------------------- D:-0*-------------------0*------------------- A:------------------------------------------- E:------------------------------------------- Then the bass does this twice: G:------------------------------------------- D:--55555555--------------------------------- A:-----------33333333-55555555-33333333------ E:------------------------------------------- Then back to another variation of the first riff, only quicker: G:------------------------------------------- D:-00-22-44-55-77-55-4^5^4-2^4^2------------- A:------------------------------------------- E:------------------------------------------- And then finally, the last part of the intro G:------------------------------------------- D:-00-22-44-55-77777777---------------------- A:------------------------------------------- E:------------------------------------------- As for the actual song (even though the intro is way cooler): Mark (bass) does this 4 times during the verse G:------------------------------------------- D:--55555555--------------------------------- A:-----------33333333-55555555-33333333------ E:------------------------------------------- Then theres another roll on the cymbals which leads into the chorus G:------------------------------------------- D:-0*-------------------0*------------------- A:------------------------------------------- E:------------------------------------------- Ok that's like the hard part of the song, then you just do this the rest of the way: G:------------------------------------------- D:--5555------------------------------------- A:-------3333-5555-3333---------------------- E:------------------------------------------- EXCEPT! Right before Mark sings the chorus for the last time (During the end of the guitar solo) Go back to this: G:------------------------------------------- D:--55555555--------------------------------- A:-----------33333333-55555555-33333333------ E:------------------------------------------- Then back to the regular riff, and end the song G:------------------------------------------- D:--5555------------------------------------- A:-------3333-5555-3333---------------------- E:------------------------------------------- Just remember to end on D:--0*---------------------------------------
