Foxy Lady - Jimi Hendrix ("Yeah! Lets get down to business, just gimme one second to get down to business.") Intro - Basically Jimi plays the first note with heaps of vibrato. He starts off with the volume control of his guitar turned right down, strikes the note and then brings the volume control up, so that the note rises to a scream. vibrato F#7(#9) - I think - or otherwise its F#m7 ----------------|----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------| ----------------|----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------| -16-------------|-------------------------------| ----------------|--------4-4--------------------| ----------------|--------------------------2-3-4| ------------16\2|2-2-------------2-2-----5------| Thumb F#7(#9) ----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------|----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------| ----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------|----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------| -------------------------------|-------------------------------| --------4-4--------------------|--------4-4--------------------| --------------------------2-3-4|--------------------------2-3-4| 2-2-------------2-2-----5------|2-2-------------2-2-----5------| Now you know - you're a cute little heart-breaker F#7(#9) ----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------|----5-x-----5-x-----5-5---------| ----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------|----5-x-----5-x-----5-5---------| -------------------------------|---------------------------2h4p2| --------4-4--------------------|--------4-4---------------------| --------------------------2----|--------------------------2-----| 2-2-------------2-2-----5-----5|2-2-------------2-2-----5-------| Fo-xy And you know, you're a sweet little love-maker F#7(#9) B ----5-x-----5-x-----5-5--------------| ----5-x-----5-x-----5-5-------4-4-x-x| ------------------------------4-4-x-x| --------4-4-------------4-----4-4-x-x| --------------------------0-2-2-2-x-x| 2-2-------------2-2------------------| Fo-xy F# E F# E 2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0-------------------|2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0------------------| 2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0-------------------|2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0------------------| 3---3---x-x-x-3-3|1--------2/7-7-9-7--|3---3---x-x-x-3-3|1--------3bu4-2-3--| 4---4---x-x-x-4-4|2--------2/7-------9|4---4---x-x-x-4-4|2-----------------4| 4---4---x-x-x-4-4|2-------------------|4---4---x-x-x-4-4|2------------------| 2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0-------------------|2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0------------------| Thumb I wana take you Home I won't do you no Harm F# E F# - strike chord and then cut off sharply 2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0---0------------|2-------| 2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0---0------------|2-------| 3---3---x-x-x-3-3|1---1------------|3-------| 4---4---x-x-x-4-4|2---2-----0-2-0--|4-------| 4---4---x-x-x-4-4|2---2-0h2-------2|4-------| 2---2---x-x-x-2-2|0---0------------|2-------| Thumb You got to be all Mine Oooh! foxy lady! The second verse is played much the same as the first, but with different embilishments is the chords - Hendrix seemed able to invent them on the spot. The lead in to the solo goes like: ---------------------17bu19-etc----------- /14----/14 /14---------------------------- ----14---------14------------------------- ------------------16---------------------- ------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------ If anyone has managed to suss out a decent sounding solo for this song (like Jimi plays it differently every time!) let me know. I'd also be keen to get my hands on tab for the solo of Stairway to Heaven, if anyone has it. Mark Hall email mhall@waikato.ac.nz
