Greetings.

This is a request to anyone who may be able to help with tablature to "Ohio." The picking for the body of the song is not an issue; what I am specifically looking for is tablature for the lead guitar break at the beginning of the song. My ears are not cooperating on this one.

Many thanks.

Well, I found the 'tab'....but it was just chords over the lyrics. Not what you need, I gather....

You might look at this site which seems to have the tab for the intro: The Tab World - Ohio I haven't played it, so can't confirm that. (You can refuse the ActiveX control and still see the tab).

I don't think the tab is right at all--

First-the guitar is in D-down tuning, which is how you get that first low note(use palm to damp the string, Blues-style)

Then you do hammer on the open G string up to an A(second fret), but it sound to me like it goes from there to the C, first string, and back to the A--

I found that I could do the whole lick easily by:

holding my hand in the F-chord position,

hammering on to the A (G-string, 2nd fret)

then hitting the C (first fret, B string)

Back to the A note

Then catch an F note on the D string(third fret)

And then hitting C , third fret on the A string--


Don't let the other guitars fool you into trying to play their parts--this is a simple lick--

Thanks for bring it up--it's been a while since I've listened to it, and it is a great tune, played well--

Here's the introduction more or less. The opening low D requires the 6th to D.

Should have said:
Hammering to the A-

That's it for the one guitar. But does anybody have an idea of the electric lead guitar that enters after a couple of bars and before the first verse? That's the one I can't "hear".

Many thanks.
