# tabbed by : JPTROL email : tangoalphabravodeltaechomikeoscar at oscarnovemberlimaindianovemberecho . foxtrotromeo SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL Jagger/Richards Full tab with lead, rhythm and a 2 minutes solo
This is from the stage performance recorded on GET YER YA YAS OUT ! in 1970 in Madison Square Gardens in New-York. I tabbed two guitars (and the bass in another tab) : - the lead guitar is tuned in OPEN G : (D) - G - D - G - B - D (as usual the bass D is useless) - I tabbed the solo with the standard tuned guitar that also plays rhythm. The rhythm plays the simple sequence : E : 022100 D : XX0323 A : 577655 And in the chorus B : 799877 - the SOLO : in the performance it lasts 3'10". Sorry I only tabbed the first 2 minutes. ************************************************************************************* 🏷Legend : h : hammer-on p : pull off / : slide-up \ : slide down XbY : bend at the X fret until it sounds like Y (X < Y) XrY : release at the Y fret from the X sound (X > Y : you start from the bended position) Xb : bend moderalety ^^ : vibrato X! : do not let ring.
