Jailbird - Primal Scream
Smith. However, it is not entirely correct: he uses a D chord in place
of a Bm, and an F#m chord instead of an F#. Most importantly though, he
doesn\'t include the riff which is, without doubt, the best bit. I should
however give Ben credit for making sense of the lyrics - something I could
not have achieved in a thousand years!
intro/main riff:
play for 3 bars play for one bar

h = hammer on
p = pull off
This riff pretty much takes the form of an A chord, using
the first finger to block out the top 4 strings. Obviously
the chords G->D->A conclude the fourth bar.
Overall, this riff is a great way to combine picking with
can be used throughout the song during the A chord.
