PEAT CHORUS:
TES:
rom the word "Boin-n-n-g" until right before the piano solo, I
lieve these are all just single notes played on guitar/bass. It
unds as if it is playing an Em chord, but I am not exactly sure.
anyone knows different please let me know.
At the end of the chorus on the 2nd time, it does some weird
uff with the Dm7 and Eb chords, and then repeats the last line of
e chorus one more time

BIG SWIFTY - Frank Zappa
-----------------------------------------
Tabbed by Howard Wright
is is based mostly on the 'Make a Jazz Noise Here' version, but
should be pretty similar to other versions - it's usually the rhythm
the bits that changes, rather than the notes themselves.
might be an idea to listen to the track from 'Jazz Noise ...' and
llow the tab just so you know where the different sections come in.
ere are quite a few time changes - I've tried to indicate some
them (i.e fast bit, slow bit, etc) but it's best if you get
ed to the track a little, then it should be clear how the tab
rks.
in Swifty Tune :

en you get to G you move back up to D and start going down again ...
little later on the same evening :
his is where they stop noodling and the whole brass section plays
is tune together - the pace kind of picks up here too)

Oh God I am the american dream
But now I smell like vaseline
I'm a miserable son of a bitch
Am I a boy or a lady, I don't know which

I went out and bought me a leisure suit

mply repeat the chords for the verses and the refrain. The words in
ackets are originally for the background voices. If you sing them,
e most difficult point is the end of "..get a good job", because the
rics of the following verse start at the same time as "job".
there are mistakes in the lyrics: I took them from the ftp.sunet.se
ub/music/lyrics. Let them know.
m not so shure about the "Dm7" chords either, plain "Dm" might do just
ne. Corrections welcome, but don't send them to me, as I will be lea-
ng this account quite soon. Send them to Nevada instead, I'll be back
the net some other time.

the actual recorded version I dinnae hear a guitar on some of the rhythem
ctions other than the obvious lead parts by Frank; as a result
have transcribed the keyboard parts for guitar. For a decent live version
eck out Zappa's Universe featuring Dweezil and Steve Vai....

K. I haven't seen anyone else post any Zappa tunes, I have a bunch
igured out so I've decided since I have nothing better to do at 3:00 in
he morning I'll try my first PC tab. Bass guitar only, I'm not in the
mood to post the guitar part, I'm not that ambitious.
or those of you not familiar with this tune, it is available on several
appa albums, it originally appeared on One Size Fits All. Featured
musicians were Frank of course, George Duke, Napoleon Murphy Brock,
hester Thomas, Tom Fowler, and Ruth Underwood. IMHO the _best_ version
f this song is on the album "The Best Band You Never Heard In Your
ife". I highly suggest picking it up.
My TAB explanation:
/y denotes a slide from fret x to fret y.
verything else is self explanitory.
Anyways, here it goes.

G-Spot Tornado - Frank Zappa-------------------------------------
tabbed by Howard Wright
is is a classic Zappa song - fast, manic, exhilarating tune, quirky
rmonies and rhythmns and lots of his favourite interval - the 4th !
e instrument names I've written down obviously refer to the Yellow
ark version.
ve tabbed the different variations of the main tune rather than try
d do the whole piece.
save repeating myself and creating a huge long file,
ve just tabbed out the parts in the variations that are
fferent from the previous versions.
ce you've got the first two bits sussed (what I've called
ne 1A and 1B) the rest is nearly all repeats of this
th literally just a handful of notes changed.
ve labelled the different lines for tunes 1A and 1B and then just
ferred to these later on - e.g in the 3rd tune I've just typed
t one new line and then put - repeat lines 2A to 12A.
hope this is easy enough to follow.
e rhythmn for this is basically all 8th notes (quavers if you prefer).
te that the first 8th notes of most bars is a rest - so a lot of
e phrases have 7 notes.
find it sounds best when you pick all the notes individually rather
an use hammer-ons or pull-offs. If you use one finger per fret
st finger - 9th fret, 2nd finger - 10th fret etc) then you can play about
% of it without changing position.

w it's basically the same tune again but played up two frets so
s in C#m instead of Bm. There is also a two part harmony going with
few 'quirky' notes stuck in.
ay line 1B, then lines 2A-6A all moved up 2 frets and that will be
out right. If you want to be *really* picky, there is a note missed

c etc
.B This whole tune is played in parallel 4ths. It's easier to
ay the single notes as I've tabbed above, but if you want a
allenge try playing the two harmony parts on the lower strings.ve the tune down an octave and then add a harmony part a 4th below.
would start like this :
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
-----2-4--2--4--2--4-----2-4-2------2-4-6-
-2-4-2-4--2--4--2--4-2-4-2-4-2--2-4-2-4-6- etc )
-2-4-----------------2-4--------2-4-------
------------------------------------------
get the hang of the rhythm here all I can suggest is practise
lot ! After a lot of careful listening I was able to play along
to this point - but it's hard to keep it going for the whole section!
's made easier by the fact that the percussion beats out a steady
4 beat throughout this section to use as a reference.
e stuff that I've left out after here is quite a large chunk.
ter a while the whole ensemble plays this little tune in unison :
--------------------------------------------9--------

before, this tune is actually played in 4ths. It's harder to play
e two parts at the proper speed, but if you want to try, here
the 2-part version of the same tune :
-7-7-5-7-7-5-7-7-5-7-7-5-7-7-9-5-7---10-9-7-5-7--7--9-----5--7--
-7-7-5-7-7-5-7-7-5-7-7-5-7-7-9-5-7---10-9-7-5-7--7--9--7--5--7--
-------------------------------------------------------6--------
----------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ter a few little phrases on the brass, there is another little tune
4ths (played on the piano). This one is OK to play at full speed as
uses a couple of open strings to make it easier.

Go Cry On Somebody Else's Shoulder
y Frank Zappa
From the Album 'Freak Out'
ranscribed by Joe Schwab ([email protected])
traight strumming is best for this song. The verse sounds good with a
ittle arpeggiation, but this is a pretty straightforward tune. Kinda
doo-wop like (real Frankie Vallie stuff, here).
Prologue]

Was when you went away

And you say you're back to stay, but I say

anscribed by Jeff Langille
ese are the chord progressions to a bunch of FZ songs that I learned so
could practice singing them. Get the album and LISTEN for the tempo,
el, words/melody, etc. All the tunes in this series are _cool_ (I
uldn't bother doing this if they weren't) so go find'em and play'em!
===========================================================================
ng : Heavenly Bank Account
bum: You Are What You Is (#34, 9/81)
4, Key of A
excellent commentary on religion and politics (this album has some of
e best ever on this subject, IMHO). Its fun to sing too.
e song is fairly straight-forward with only one main progression. But the
idge fixes anyone who thought they found and easy one. It has a steady
lse throughout (the lower staff) at the same tempo as the rest of the
ng, but Frank decided to sing everything a bit faster, just for fun I
ess ;). I have tried to notate it as clearly as possible but it simply
ils down to singing, in the first phrase, 20 eighth notes in the space
14 at the original tempo. The second has 15 over 10, third has 17 over
and the last again has 15 over 10. You MUST listen to the song itself
get the feel of this. My explanation makes it sound harder than it is
t I thought I'd give you my interpretation of what he's doing, for
yone else who likes to know this kind of thing..:)
he 7th bar of the VERSE (E) is in 2/4.
e D#mi7b5 chord is played as follows:
5 4 3 2 1 <-string (1=high/thin)
6 7 6 7 x <-fret
ay this pattern on the 8th fret (x8989x) for the Fmi7b5 in the intro.

bject: TAB: Frank Zappa, "Marqueson's Chicken" ... Bawk!
sic by Frank Zappa (1940-1993)
anscribed by Jeff Langille
======================================================================
ng : Marqueson's Chicken (7:36)
bum: Them or Us (#40, 10/18/84)
is tune is a perfect example of the type of stuff Steve Vai had to put
with while he was working for Frank. Steve executes the guitar lines
cely but the coolest parts are the arpeggiated sections originally
ayed by percussionist Ed Mann. The piece rocks so if you've never
ard it and you like Steve's stuff find a copy of this. (Them or Us
so has the song Stevie's Spanking commemorating Vai's encounter with
urel and her favorite _device_ ...;)
e song is not particularly fast (about 112) but requires some decent
rict alternate picking to get everything in time and even.
e time signatures are written under the bar. Don't let the weird ones
are you. Most of the time the notes are eighths or sixteenths evenly
ayed over the bar; Frank was very good at making them unobtrusive.
e "%" indicates that the previous bar is repeated once.

ng: Montana (6:36)
bum: Overnite Sensation (#17, 9/7/73)
ese parts are based on the original version of Montana (no whipping
oss here!). I've notated the intro and the other interesting melodies
the tune but the highlight is the Interlude section. While performed
cally on the album, it (mostly) translates well to the guitar but is
ally fun to play, so try it! As with any TAB there is no rhythmic
tation so you HAVE to listen to the song to get it right. Watch out
r the groups of five in the last bar!

Green Genes is a really easy tune to play, and it is
so a good one to illustrate basic elements of harmony
d melody. Here is my arrangement, kind of a composite the _Best Band You Never heard.._ and _Hot Rats_ versions.
re are the main chords....I have used many different voicings
these chords....
m7 - G - Dm7 - G - Dm7 - G - Dm7 - G
maj7 - Am7 - Cmaj7 - Am7
- G - Am - Bb
en it repeats again and again until the end, where it goes
- G - Am - Bb - C - Dm - Dbm - Dm
w the melody is like this......after doing the above once
ased on the _Hot Rats_ version).
Dm7 G (4x)

PEACHES EN REGALIA - FRANK ZAPPA-------------------------------------------
From the album 'Hot Rats'
tabbed by Howard Wright
= slide
= bend up (e.g 11b13 means play 11th fret note and bend up a tone)
= release bend (e.g 11b13r11 means play 11th fret note, bend up, then release)
= hammer on
= pull off
ve tried to TAB out as much as I know, and then I've written out just the chord
r the bits I didn't tab. I've written out chord names above the TAB as well to
e basic feel.
ease note - chords with a / like A/C# mean A with a C# in the bass.
TRO CHORDS :
-------------
u can't really play the bass notes with the chords on just
e guitar, but I've written out the chord names (including bass notes)
ove the TAB anyway.

bject: CRD: Frank Zappa, "Sofa #2"
sic by Frank Zappa (1940-1993)
is is quite an attractive piece of music. It could be commercial, with
few more margaritas and the right company.
wever, I digress.
is is my own favorite song of FZ's to sing. Beautiful melody
lso very common as an instrumental) and bilingual lyrics (they come in
rman also).

4, Key of A
is is a basic song made particularly cool by FZ's subtle use of time
gnature changes. When you listen to the song they don't jump out at you
t they make the difference between an average tune and one that's got
mething about it. The changes are in the verse so I put the time under
ch bar to keep things straight. Play the odd eighth bars with steady
ghth note strums to accent the shifting time. They should all be steady
t just an unusual number of strums.

4, Key of F (usually)
is is a cool piece about the music biz and FZ's impression of session
ayers. This is a fun song to play so if you've never heard it dig up
copy of FZMMP, well worth it with some excellent, short Synclavier comps.
me of the chord in this one are questionable. Especially the C/F/Ami/Dmi.
played with this one a lot before I settled on those chords. Some other
tions include G/F/C/Dmi and C/Bb/Ami/G. The B/F#/C#/G... section is
so very weird. These chords work with the melody but harmonically aren't
e greatest in the song (unless you like that sorta thing :0) If you
nd alternates let me know.
is song has subjective chords because the progressions are implied
the melody only. There are no clear chord parts being played.

om: Howard Wright (Hman)
ZOOT ALLURES - Frank Zappa
----------------------------------------
tabbed by Howard Wright
think there's already a version of this at Nevada. My tab is quite
milar in terms of the notes used, but the strings and fret numbers
use are quite different. I think this way it's a lot easier to play
so you can leave the notes to sustain a little.
is is based more on the live versions of the track than the studio
rsion.
ere's one bit which is quite hard to pull off using just one guitar
if you have a bass and a guitar you can split the part up to make it
rk, but if you're just playing on your own it's a bit tricky so
ve tabbed an alternative part for these shapes - It just uses anternative shape for the same chord - it isn't exactly what's on the
cord, but it works well and is nice and easy to play.
r this bit I've used curly brackets { to indicate the alternative
nes of TAB - the top line is the 'true' line, the bottom line is
e easier one.
- slide up
- slide down
- hammer on
- pull off
let notes sustain ........

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
these are a bit of a stretch, so you could try
the other voicing of the same chord I've tabbed below.
You can't get the same three notes leading up to the
chords, but it's easier to get the chord shape.

oot Allures_
Frank Zappa
anscribed by Jeremy Sarna ([email protected])
th help from Mike Keneally ([email protected])
is transcription is based on the version of Zoot Allures featured on
BYNHIYL. The bar lines only separate phrases, and don't correspond
any musical-notation reality.
is version differs from Howard Wright's version (currently residing
Nevada) in that some of the chord voicings are different, and the
n at bar 7 is played at the first position, instead of the sixth.
is transcription has been declared accurate by Mike Keneally, FZ's
itarist during the 1988 tour (who also helped me out with some of
e trickier voicings).
mbology: / = slide up
\ = slide down
~ = vibrato

'You are what you is' the guitar is played way too well for me to realize wha
ing played. But the live version on 'Have I offended someone?' is much more
cognizable. (If you haven't heard it, I'm sure you can get a sound clip from C
someplace.)
, and of course I haven't figured out to solo yet.
