Royal Oil Tab

by Mighty Mighty Bosstones


other tab was good but not perfect and the bridge was
way off so credit to Rafael Amaral for most of this

intro and verse  (intro 1.5x)
G|-----------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------|
A|---------2-4-2----2*-2--2-4-2------|
E|--5-5--5-------2--------------5-2--|
*end on this note at the break before verse 1

chorus riff 1
G|----------------------------------|
D|------4-7-----4-7-----------------|
A|--5-5-----4-4-----2-2--4-2--------|
E|---------------------------5-2-0--|

chorus riff 2
G|----------------------------------|
D|------4-7-----4-7-----------------|
A|--5-5-----4-4-----/7-7-7-7-7-7-7--|
E|----------------------------------|
riff 2 always ends the chorus, but riff 1 is played a different
number of times depending on which chorus it is, just listen to
find out

bridge
G|-----------------|
D|-----------------|
A|--------------2--|
E|--5--5--5--5\----|
hard to tab the rhythm. i guess u could say the A's
should take up two counts (although they arnt strictly
eighth notes)and the B is a half note

for the last chorus you play riffs 1 and 2 a few times (again,
listen to it to know when to play which) and then play this ending riff:

G|-------------------------------------|
D|------4-7-----4-7--------------------|
A|--5-5-----4-4-----2-2--4-2-----------|
E|---------------------------5-2-0--5--|
