Frot ( тексты песен и аккорды на ficd.ru ): Daniel B Sharp
Subject: cradle and all by Ani DiFranco
Cradle and All by Ani Difranco
From Not a Pretty Girl on Righteous Babe records
Like the majority of Ani's amazing songs, cradle and all uses a crazy
Alternative tuning. On the CD, I believe the tuning is F-F-C-Ab-C-Eb
But I transposed the song (Texts of songs ) down a half step because E-E-B-G-B-D is
Easier for me to understand. The two E's are low and in unison, so the
5th string, usually tuned to A, gets pretty floppy.
Ani always adds slight rhythmic variations, so this tablature should not
Be considered as exact. Use this notation as a basic structure, and listen
To the recording to iron out the details. I believe she uses reinforced
Press-on nails, so it may be difficult to emulate her sound without them.
I think that I can get pretty close with my fingers, or a pick.
D U D U D U D U D U D U D U D U D U D U D U D U D U D U
Don't let any of the notes in this part ring. I included the up and
Downstrokes even where there's no sound because that is the motion I
Make with my hand while I play it. The strokes in between the chords
I make in the air right in front of the strings.
