Hot Pants Explosion Tab

by The B-52s





This is Hot Pants Explosion by the B-52's from the desk of Kyle C. Schnettler

Before guitar enters there should be 2 measures of drum intro.

Guitar enters with this 2 times:

E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
B_ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ _1_ _ _ _ 1 ! _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
G_ 0_ _ _0 _ 3 _ _ _ _ 0_ _ _ 0 _3 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
D_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
A_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The guitar then continues for the rest of the song in the background
as this:


E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
B_ _ _ 1_ _ _ _ _1 _ _ _ _1 _ _ 3_1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
G_ 0_ _ _0 _ 3 _ _ _ _ 0 _ _ 0 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
D_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
A_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

This should give you the basics now you have to add your own stuff to
give it your own unique sound, just like Fred Schnider.  Some credit should be given to Nathan Bethell 
is almost as suave as Dover.)

Note:  On the recording of this song on the album "Good Stuff" it is the B-52's drummer who played the 
alone in the studio before the vocals were recorded.  It was then mixed in later.
