On the Border1974This song rocks. This song was a pain to figure out, but here it is. I've triedto get all the guitars in but I know that's not possible. Glenn sings and playssome of the riffs, and Felder does the rest. I think it's pretty easy to play,and lots of you will definitely be able to play it. And if it helps, the leadsare mostly based on the dorian mode of G major, and the solo is in aeolian mode.Please write me with comments, because this took forever to do.Have fun, and good luck!The way this goes is we have the opening measure with onlyguitar, then on beat one of measure two the drums enter.Rhythm Figure 1 happens, and then the main riff happens, withRhythm Figure 1 behind it.INTRO:GUITAR 1 (dist. elec.)Rhythm Figure 1--------------------------------------------------------|1 1 1 1 1/2 1/2+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +e:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| B:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----0---0-7^----|-7^r-------------| G:-----------------|-----------------|-7^r-------------|-0---0---0-7^----|-7^r-5-----------| D:---------4-5-7-5-|-7^--7^--7^r-5---|-7^r-5-----------|-----------------|-------7-5-------| A:---4-5-7---------|---------------7-|-------7-5-------|-----------------|-----------7-5---| E:-----------------|-----------------|-----------7-5-3-|-----------------|---------------7-|Main Riff, w/ Rhythm Figure 1 behind it.GUITAR 2 (dist. elec)1/2 1/2 Well I+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +e:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| B:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| G:-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| D:-----------------|-----------------|-----------5-7^r-|-5~~~~~~~~~~~~~--| A:-----------5-7^r-|-5~~~~~~~~~~~~~--|-3-----5-7-------|-----------------| E:-3-----5-7-------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|Now we get to the verse, where we haveGUITAR 1 doing this thing.
