                             DOGS  -  Pink Floyd
                          ---------------------------

The other dogs.crd file from Nevada has some mistakes in it 

I think it was just a slip-up when it was typed, but the last two
chords it gives sound horrible.

I think you have to tune all strings down a tone to be in tune 
with the record, so the strings should be tuned to : DGCFAD


The shapes are :

   DGCFAD     DGCFAD     DGCFAD     DGCFAD
   022032     x33010     xx4420     xx3310

    Dm9       Bbadd4     E7sus4    Ebmaj7sus4


These chords fade in slowly over the Dm9

Play 4 bars of each chord :

 Dm9       Bbadd4       E7sus4       Ebmaj7sus4


It repeats over and over........


One extra point : there is a little grace note, or added note on
the last two chords of the sequence (E and Eb)

On the last strum of each bar add a finger on the top D string
- for the E chord, add at the second fret, for the Eb chord add
at the first fret.

I can't TAB out the exact strumming pattern as it's pretty busy
playing, but for these two chords with the extra note it looks
roughly like this :

D--0--0-0---0--0-0---0-2-- .... --0--0-0---0--0-0---0-1---- ....
A--2--2-2---2--2-2---2-2-- .... --1--1-1---1--1-1---1-1---- ....
F--4--4-4---4--4-4---4-4-- .... --3--3-3---3--3-3---3-3---- ....
C--4--4-4---4--4-4---4-4-- .... --3--3-3---3--3-3---3-3---- .... 
G------------------------- .... --------------------------- .... 
D------------------------- .... --------------------------- ....


                     ^^^^                           ^^^^
               note added here                   and here

 I've missed out the three repeated bars in the middle and at the end
What I've tabbed is just one bar's worth of each chord.

Hope you get the idea

Enjoy !

Dogs by Pink Floyd
Music by R.Waters/D.Gilmour
>From the album Animals

Here's my interpretation of the first solo in Dogs, not a hard
solo to play but some of the timings are tricky and the little
touches (vibrato etc) are what makes it. Listen to the record
and you'll catch the drift.

Tab legend:
/  slide
b  bend
r  release
~  vibrato
.  staccato
() note sounds but not played

Here's the second solo of "Dogs", I think it's pretty
close but if anyone has a better version, let me know. This is tabbed for a 
guitar tuned down to D eg DACFAD which I think is what they did on the 
record, unlike the one above which is for a standard tuned guitar. I've 
tried to give some idea of the timing but as usual, listen to the record...

prebends:

eg. (14)b15r(14) is a reverse bend, 15th to 14th frets.
