Shambala - Three Dog Night

*******************************************
standard tuning
tabbed by Robb Anagnostis 4-16-14

This entire song is comprised of RIFF 1 and RIFF 2 (shown tabbed below).
RIFF 1 is the acoustic guitar that is the dominant rhythm instrument
(which is tabbed incorrectly elsewhere).
A distorted electric plays root notes under RIFF 1, almost like
a bass line. Another guitar joins from the 2nd verse on with E, D and A chords.
RIFF 2 is played by both acoustic and electric on the Chorus.

There might seem a bit of a clash when RIFF 1 hits open G (like an Em) and the
other rhythm instruments are hitting G# (playing E Major), but surprising
as it is, that IS how it is played. Please see the CHORD VOICING chart below.
