The Awakening - The Reddings Tabbed by Biorn Holmstrom (a.k.a. One Ugly Bastard) email: claypool@forpresident.com This song was originally made a long time ago by the band "the Reddings", but came to my knowledge when Primus bassist Les Claypool played it on his solo album, "Les Claypool and the Holy Mackarel presents Highball with the Devil". (interscope 1996). First, big thanks to Tamas Viktor (s6041tam@ural2.hszk.bme.hu) for his great midi-version of this song. Most of this tab was possible because of him. This tab is also a mixture of different other sources, I've tried to make it resemble the way les claypool does it...but it's hard cause he plays it different each time. Well, enjoy: a.h = harmonic \ = slide to lower note / = slide to higher note V = strum downwards ^ = strum upwards X = muted note time: 4 beats/bar slap/pop all notes when there's no other instructions like strum or such ( a.h ) ( a.h ) G-|--------5-------|----------------|--------5-------| D-|-----------5----|----------------|-----------5----| A-|----------------|----------------|----------------| E-|0---------------|----------------|0-------------5-| ( a.h.)
