Flashguns - Racing Race Guitar Tab

Yes, it's 2014 and I've finally posted a new tab!

This one was very tricky as Sam from Flashguns likes to change his performance of it A LOT (see all live video performances of this on YouTube).  So I wouldn't say my tab is 100% accurate, but I hope you enjoy it.

I will update a pdf link later.

Flashguns – Racing Race (tabbed from the Album: Matching Hearts, Similar Parts EP)
tabbed by calicoeannecash
Intro
The path I travel is much too long
Holes in my shoes they’re coming on strong
Can’t you hear the blues in my last two songs?
Gotta help me keep on carrying on, carrying on, carrying on
Interlude 1
Fretful sound of the horses’ hooves
Doesn’t mean you harm only bringing you news
Run on run on black dog at my side
Keep on guessing in my mood like the coming and the going of the lunatic tide
Interlude 2
Pre-Bridge
Oh the crunch, oh the crunch
Went without dinner and now we go without lunch
Oh the crunch, oh the crunch
Went without dinner and now we go without lunch
Rock steady running and keep the pace
A million miles of the racing race
Forget about speed and forget about haste
A million miles of the racing race racing race come on
Run on run on black dog at my side
Keep on guessing in my mood of the coming and the going of the lunatic tide
Fretful sound of the horses’ hooves
Doesn’t mean you harm only bringing you news
Interlude 3
Rock steady running and keep the pace
A million miles of the racing race come on, come on
Forget about speed and forget about haste
A million miles of the racing race come on, come on, come on
Forget about speed and forget about haste
A million miles of the racing race
Open Dm tuning: DADFAD

  1. Your tabs are spot on as far as I can tell, and you're obviously very talented. Being a mutual fan of Bombay Bicycle Club I wonder if you could have a go at tabbing Word by Word. I am yet to find one, and trying to learn from videos didn't get me very far. All I can tell you is its in drop D.

    Thanks, Nathan

  2. Thanks for your kind words, Nathan!

    I am sorry for the delay in my response, I have only just seen your comment now! I have a holiday coming up so will be able to do this hopefully.

    Will get back to you soon!

    Thanks,

    Jane
