Capo: no capo
Tuning: E A D G B E
Artist: Bruce Springsteen (with some of the E Street Band)
Song: Tunnel of Love
Album: Tunnel of Love
Tabbed by Anthony DePiano on November 14, 2008
I looked at other tabs and they sounded decent but I tried
to get this dead on and I think it sounds really good. I
think I covered pretty much everything in the song.
TUNING:
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|**NOT Standard Tuning** |
|Tuning: EADGAd (low to high) |
| |
|Tune your high "e" and "B" down a step to a "d" and "A" |
|***Then put a capo on the 3rd fret*** |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
CAPO ON 3rd FRET. Now 3rd fret = 0.
b = bend
/ = slide
[] = pinch harmonic
v = vibrato or hold note
x = muted string
() = you don't have to play those notes but sound
alright if you do.

Get used to the hand formations. They can be hard
to switch quickly.

I use heavy distortion with a wah-wah pedal.
