Know-How - Kings Of Convenience
Tabbed by Simon Bance Aug/Sep 2004
This is one of my favourite ones from the album. Piano part maybe coming soon, but don't hold your breath! Starting with Eirik's rhythm nylon guitar part...
Tuning; Standard Capo 3
Main riff;
|---------------------------|----0----0--0---0---0--0-|
|----6---6--6-----6---6---6-|----3----3--3---3---3--3-|
|----3---3--3-----3---3---3-|----0----0--0---0---0--0-|
|----3---3--3-----3---3---3-|-------5----3-5-3--5-----|
|-----3h5------5----5-------|3------------------------|
|3--------------------------|-------------------------|
|---------------------------|-------------------3--3--|
|----3---3--3-----3---3---3-|----3----3-----3---3--3--|
|----5---5--5-----5---5---5-|----3----3-----3---7--5p3|
|----5---5--5-----5---5---5-|3-------7---3------------|
|0-----3-------3----3-------|-------------------------|
|---------------------------|-------------------------|
Now we're getting onto the big ending section "Oh what is there to know..." etc.
(The "x"s refer to muted notes that are not really on any fret but are important to the rhythm. Best played on an open string.
|------------3---------|-------3----------|-------3----------|-------------------|
|--------6------6------|--5--5-----5------|----3----3--------|----3--------------|
|--3-3-3--3-3------3-3-|----7----7---7-x-x|--5--5------5-5---|--3--3-3-----------|
|-3-------------------x|-5-5--5-----5-----|---5--5----5---5-x|-7-7--7-7-x-x-x-x-x|
|-------------------5--|3-----------------|-3-----------3----|5------------------|
|3---------------------|------------------|5-----------------|-------------------|
(In the last bar there the 5th fret might sound wrong at first but the double bass is playing extra bass notes to confuse us! :)
Now when the guitar comes back in it is a variation on the main riff;
|---------------------------|----0----0--0---0---0--0-|
|----6---6--6-----6---6---6-|----3----3--3---3---3--3-|
|----3---3--3-----3---3---3-|----0----0--0---0---0--0-|
|----3---3--3-----3---3---3-|-------5----3-5-3--5-----|
|-----3h5------5----5-------|3------------------------|
|3--------------------------|-------------------------|
|---------------------------|-------------------------|
|----3---3--3-----3---3---3-|----5----5-----5----5----|
|----5---5--5-----5---5---5-|----7----7-----7----7----| (or something
|----5---5--5-----5---5---5-|----7----7-----7----7----| - u can't hear
|0-----3-------3----3-------|5-------5----5------5----| it anyway!)
|---------------------------|-------------------------|
And the second time round use G minor and F major chord shapes for the third and fourth bars respectively.
Then repeat the whole thing.
It's G minor and F major chords to finish as well. :)
