Carmensita tab by Devendra Banhart

This is a version of the song played by Ivan Morales Martinez in this video https://youtu.be/Dc49TymHhoM .
All credit goes to him, I just decided to tab it out.


Verse:
                ?                 ?
e|---5---------7---|---7-----7-7---|---5---------7---|---7-----7-7---|
B|---5---------7---|---8-----8-8---|---5---------7---|---8-----8-8---|
G|---5-------7-----|---9-----9-9---|---5-------7-----|---9-----9-9---|
D|-----------------|---------------|-----------------|---------------| and so on...
A|-----------------|-7-----7-------|-----------------|-7-----7-------|
E|-5---5-5/7-----7-|-m---7-m-----7-|-5---5-5/7-----7-|-m---7-m-----7-|

Going from the verse to the chorus he leaves out the last note, so the verse ends on the strum.
In this Song one can simply mute the B(7th on E-string) by releasing the string when playing the next note.

Chorus:

  Am  Bm    Em/B      Am  Bm    Em/B
  ?  v ? v  v  ?  v ? v  v  ?  v ? v  v  ?  v ? v  v
e|-5-s-5-7-7-s-7-|-7-s-7-7-7-s-7-|-5-s-5-7-7-s-7-|-7-s-7-7-7-s-7-|
B|-5-s-5-7-7-s-7-|-8-s-8-8-8-s-8-|-5-s-5-7-7-s-7-|-8-s-8-8-8-s-8-|
G|-5-s-5-7-7-s-7-|-9-s-9-9-9-s-9-|-5-s-5-7-7-s-7-|-9-s-9-9-9-s-9-|
D|-7-s-7-9-9-s-9-|-9-s-9-9-9-s-9-|-7-s-7-9-9-s-9-|-9-s-9-9-9-s-9-| and so on...
A|-7---7-9-9---9-|-7---7-7-7---7-|-7---7-9-9---9-|-7---7-7-7---7-|
E|-5---5-7-7---7-|-7---7-7-7---7-|-5---5-7-7---7-|-7---7-7-7---7-|

I think he might be using a flamenco guitar in the video. If the slapping doesn't sound good on your guitar
you can try to slap the upper two bass strings instead of the lower four strings.


Intro:

e|------5---------7---|
B|------5---------7---|
G|------5-------7-----|
D|--------------------|
A|--------------------|
E|-12\5---5-5/7-----7-|

Instead of the first A in the verse you can slide in from the 12th fret. So the verse begins as above.


Outro:

e|---------------7-|-5-------------7-|-------7-----12---|
B|-------------8---|---5---5-----7---|-----8-------12---|
G|-----------9-----|-----5-----7-----|---9---------12---|
D|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
A|-----------------|-----------------|-7----------------|
E|-----------------|-5-------7-------|------------------|

Thats how he ends his song.
