Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) - Jimi Hendrix ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tabbed by Chris Hoolihan Errors/corrections/hassles - HOOL@ACTRIX.GEN.NZ HOOLIH1C@WCC.GOVT.NZ ****INTRO**** E-|-----| B-|-----| G-|-x-x-| D-|-x-x-| A-|-x-x-| E-|-----| This muted wah riff can't be transcribed. I do it with a lot of palm muting with slight distortion while muting an e chord on the A string. The same goes for the bits marked x x x in the rest of the intro ...

E-|-------------------------| B-|-15b17-15b17b15-12-15b17-| G-|-------------------------| D-|-------------------------| A-|-------------------------| E-|-------------------------| This is how the main solo starts... I'm not going to transcribe the whole thing but this will get you on track, it's an E minor pentatonic thing so work round that. Mainly the 1st pos at the 12th fret... When i first started (about a year ago) this was the song i most wanted to learn but was unable to find. Hope it works ok for you. Chris PS: Mail me if you wanna talk/trade hendrix info/tab/anything at all. --- JIMI HENDRIX Voodoo Chile - slight return (few parts) Only an attempt! Don't expect too much. When you get the basic feel you can improvise, and it can sound close to Jimi.
