Fleet Foxes Sim Sala Bim - Guitar Solo


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

Sorry this isn't Wilco related, but I'm a beginning guitar player and I'm having a tough time tabbing the Fleet Foxes' new song, "Sim Sala Bim," particularly the solo riff near the 2 minute mark. I can't get the riff out of my head and I want to be able to play it so bad. It looks really easy, I'm just not much of a guitar player yet and have never tabbed, so I was hoping someone could figure it out.

 

Here's a link to the Youtube video of the song; there's a close-up on Robin's fingers during the riff around 2:20 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m33jJRZhtl8)

 

If any awesome person has a minute and wants to do this I'd really appreciate it.

 

Thanks!

You'll need to tune your guitar to a C based tuning for this song and use a capo at the 5th fret.

 

guitar tuning low strings to high:

 

6 = C

5 = G

4 = C

3 = G

2 = B?

1 = C

 

Here's a simplified version of it to get you started:

 

C--------------------

B--------------------

G--------------------

C-----p--------------

G--8-7-5------5------

C--------10-9---7-5--
