Chinatown - Thin Lizzy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Matt Allison
Tuning: Standard
This song sounds best when played through a valve amp, using a guitar with a humbucker
set on the bridge pickup.
e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------0----0------------2--------------------------------|
A|---------------0h2----------------0h2-------------------------------------|
E|----0----0----------------------------------------------------------------|
This is the main riff throughout the song. Just play an E shape and lift it on and off.
i'm not certain about the run but I think it's in Em and it goes something like this
e|--15p12------12-----------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------15-------15p12----------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------14p12----12---------------------------------------|
D|------------------------------14----14---12--14--12-------12--------------|
A|-----------------------------------------------------14-------14----------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------15---12-|
and then
e|--15p12-------12----------------------------------------------------------|
B|----------15-------15--12-------15b17--15b17(15)-12-----------------------|
G|----------------------------12-----------------------14--12-----------12--|

D|--2----2-------------------------0----------------------------------------|
A|--2--------------0-2--0-2-3-2-3-------------------------------------------|
E|--0------0--2-3-----------------------------------------------------------|
this is the build up to the main riff. It may take a bit of practice.

A|------0h2------0h2-----2---------0h2-----0h2-----0-------0h2-----0h2------|
E|--0-0------------------------0-0---------------------0-0------------------|
These chords need repeating and for the A play the main riff up one string.

This is the chorous.

E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
After the chorous the main riff plays followed by the above. Then the run from the
is played.
I think the solos are improvised using an Em scale.
This is my first tab so i hope it isnt too bad.
