Astral Plane The Modern Lovers
Modern Lovers - Astral Plane
Here is another tab/chord chart for a song from the
Modern Lovers' 1976 album, *The Modern Lovers.*
I would be extremely interested in hearing from
anybody with corrections, comments, etc.
Thanks,

This song has two main riffs. listen to the record to get the feeling
of the time, etc, but the basic rifs are the "E riff":
e-0---0----------------0-- B-0---0----------------0-- G-1---1----------------1-- D-2---2----------------2-- A-2---2----------------2-- E-0---0---3---5---3----0--
I guess that would be written as E E/G E/A E/G E , but it is
easier for me to think of it this way.
The "A riff" is about the same except it uses an A intead of an E.
e-0---0----------------0-- B-2---2----------------2-- G-2---2----------------2-- D-2---2----------------2-- A-0---0----------------0-- E-X---X---3---5---3----X--
The chord progression during the organ solos sounds like:
[E] [A] [E] [B] [E]
Here are the lyrics with the chords:
