Tabs for Ripple - 3 and 4 String

I finally got around to learning Musescore to create tabs thanks to this post by Eric Davis:

I had a few people asking about 4 string tabs, including Rick Alexander who said he liked my version of Ripple I did a while back, so I thought that would be a good place to start. These are as close as I can get to how I would play it picking out the melody in conjunction with some chording. Each tab is one time through the verse and once through the chorus. Enjoy!

Attached are .pdfs and also a 4 string template for Musescore if anyone is interested.

Yo Turtlehead,

That is some good stuff there! The tabs look great.

Thanks so much for taking the time, I've been having a blast with the jam tracks as well.

Hope it helps Rick. I just realized I missed a measure in the 3 string tab. Fixed now.

Right on Turtlehead!

This is a great lesson for 4 string. I think a lot of people will be enjoying this.

Thanks again Turtlehead
