Title: Chi-Dem tab
Post by: ClintroN on April 12, 2004, 05:04:25 AM
The song is very easy to play, its the best fuckin' song, i love it. Just wondering if anybody els has an idea of playing it on guitar. Its similer to 'Hey man nice shot' from FILTER, in fact its exactly the same. Does anyone know if its in drop D or something.
THANX !!! : ok:

I found this tab for you which indicates that Robin does play it in drop-D tuning. I dont know if this tab is flawless but it seems good:

Chinese Democracy Tab by Guns N Roses, www.Ultimate-Guitar.Com

Chinese Democracy by Guns N' Roses

main riff:

e--------------------------------------------------------------------
B--------------------------------------------------------------------
G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D--2-2---2-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-8-7----2-2---2-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-8----------
A--2-2---2-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-8-7----2-2---2-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-8----------
E--0-0---0-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-5-6-5----0-0---0-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-5-6----------

verse:

(bass)
G---------------------------------------------------------------------
D---------------------------------------------------------------------
A---------------------------------------------------------------------
E--0-0---0-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-5-6-5-----0-0---0-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-5-6--------


Chorus:

e---------------------------------------------------------
B---------------------------------------------------------
G---------------------------------------------------------
D--------9-99---11/7--------------------------------------
A--7-77--7-77---9-/5--------------------------------------
E--5-55---------------------------------------------------
more then we got, to rule the nation...


e------------------------------------------
B------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------
A---7--7--7-7-7-7---5-5-5--3---------------
E---5--5--5-5-5-5---3-3-3--1---------------
what I got is precious time...

and there you have it, durring the solo just play the verse bit, and on the outro
play the chorus riff. I think robin plays in in drop-D tuning though, so instead
of
a: ---- ... play a: ----... and such.
   ----             ----
   ----             ----          
   --2-             --2-
   --2-             --2-

Cheers AxlMainMan your a fukkin' legend.
Its one of those songs that doesnt sound right untill you play it with the song. Thanx heeps dude.
I went out in town thurs night n' my mate was busking and i askes him if i could play a song, so i played Chi-Dem (i always improvise the last part, untill now) and this fella reconised it and screams to all his mates "LISTEN MOTHER FUCKERS TO THIS SONG THAT SHOULD BE HEARD!!!!! I stopped playing and it was GNR talk for ages, one dude had Slashes top hat tatooed on his middle back, one fella had the bitch slap rappin' lyrics on his arm and they fukkin' freaked when i showed the my GNFNRS tat on my chest.
SIDETRACK, sorry guys thought i'de share that with ya's.
THANX AGAIN.

Chorus part in drop D for bass

E
B
G
D
A      1122            8888888  33  1
E 00           3333

I had to play it a few times to get it.
Robin is definately playing in drop D, but on the RIR3 vid it looks like ol' BH is playing standerd tuneing, is that possible???
