                             Ramblin´ Rose - MC5(Kick Out The Jams 1969)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard

I realized there were no really good tabs of this classic song. Here´s how i play it, 
its very accurate.


As an intro, riff 1 is played two times before the rest of the band kicks in,
(Riff 1)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------2-5---------2-5-----------------------------------------------|
E|-/12---0-3h4-------0-3h4---------------------------------------------------|

(Riff 1) , bass and drums enter
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------2-5------------2-5-------------------------------------------------|
E|-0-3h4----------0-3h4------------------------------------------------------|

(Riff 2)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------2p0-------------2p0----------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--0-3h4----------0-3h4-----------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

(Riff 1 again)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------2-5------------2-5-------------------------------------------------|

Verse riff (2x)
    A G A G A G  A G A G A G E  (mute the E chord immediatly)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--2-0-2-0-2-0--2-0-2-0-2-0-------------------------------------------------|
A|--0-0-0-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0--2X---------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------0X---------------------------------------------|
                               ....."Love is like a rambling rose"
                               ....."The more you feel it the more it flows"
Chorus
    B               A            E (let E ring until the riff starts again)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--4-4-4-4-4-4--------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--4-4-4-4-4-4-----2-0-2-0-2-0----------------------------------------------|
A|--2-0-2-0-2-0-----0-0-0-0-0-0--2-------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------0-------------------------------------------|
   Rambling Rose,  Rambling Rose, Oh-oh-o-o-oooh...

So it goes like this:
Riff I 4x
Riff II 2x
Riff I 2x
Verseriff 1x
"Love is like a rambling rose!"
Verseriff 1x
"The more you feel it the more it flows"
Chorus 1x (Rambling rose,rambling rose-oooooh)

Start over again

Play Solos over some of the riffs(between verses)
For the last chorus(the long one), play:

B
Rambling Rose, i need a Rambling Rose, you´re just a
A
Rambling Rose, Rambling Rose

Play this four times, and then just go crazy in an outro

Have Fun! /Martin
