What Would You Say? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Dave Matthews Band Tab by David Sweet Std. Tuning. / - slide up \ - slide down ^ - bend _ - tie/slur (#) - ghost note There are two guitars playing at the beginning of the song. This is the basic riff from the guitar in the left speaker. The right guitar is the same, but perhaps with more percussive noise. Also, the second time this riff is played it is a little different, but then reverts back to the original form for the rest of the song. Maybe it's just me, but the second version sounds like it's just a mistake.

The notation is supposed to resemble slash ryhthm notation. The chord forms are all standard 6th-string-root barre chords.
