Artist: The Troggs Song: Wild Thing Tabbed by: John Leadman Every guitarist should know this song. Easy as hell, but sounds great. CHORDS: A (5776xx) D (x5777x) E (x7999x) INTRO: Starts with a strange bend. You bend the note on the 7th fret up, then you hit it, and release it back down. Listen to the song to hear what I mean. E|---------------| B|---------------| b = bend note G|--(7)b9r7------| r = release note D|---------------| A|---------------| E|---------------| Then the chords start, play the intro like this: A D E E|----------------------------------| B|-------------7-7----9-9-9-9--9-9--| G|--6--6---x-x-7-7--x-9-9-9-9--9-9--| D|--7--7---x-x-7-7--x-9-9-9-9--9-9--| A|--7--7---x-x-5-5--x-7-7-7-7--7-7--| E|--5--5----------------------------| The chords in the verses should be played something like this: A D E D E|------------------------------------| B|-------------7-7----9-9------7-7----| G|--6--6---x-x-7-7--x-9-9--x-x-7-7-x--| D|--7--7---x-x-7-7--x-9-9--x-x-7-7-x--| A|--7--7---x-x-5-5--x-7-7--x-x-5-5-x--| E|--5--5------------------------------| VERSE 1: A D E Wild thing D A D E You make my heart sing D A D E You make everything, groovy D A D E Wild thing CHORUS: Here's the riff for the chorus: E|-------------| B|-------------| G|-----6---6---| D|---5-7-5-7---| A|---5-7-5-7---| E|---5-5-5-5---| [play Riff] Wild thing, think I love you [play Riff] but I wanna know for sure [play Riff] C'mon, hold me tight [play Riff] I love you A D E D A D E D VERSE 2: [play like VERSE 1] Wild thing You make my heart sing You make everything, groovy Wild thing SOLO: This is some sort of flute arranged for guitar.
