This is an update of the original tab, by Matt Clark <Matt.Clark@umit.maine.edu>
Song: Flashlight
Artist: Parliament
Tabber: Nonex <nonex@sdf.lonestar.org>
Notes: The original tab had the notes wrong, and he neglected
to include any of the variations.
I've
Basically, play the main riff mostly, but you can play
any of the variations whenever. But if you're playing
along with the CD, you have to be careful of when you
play Variation 2, or it won't sound right.
|Key|
r = rest
L = lift off (just lift your finger off the fret)
~~ = vibrato (or trill down to the next lower fret)
\__/ = tie
