Guitar tabs session 4 looks at the main rhythm part for the song "Good Rockin" by Molly Hatchet. Personally myself, I'm one to like jumping around all over on the guitar fretboard. And in my earlier years starting out on the guitar, this song gave me just that. Besides being a great song, I found the song fun & enjoyable to play. As with all the guitar tabs sessions, I didn't add any of the special pedal effects, so you can hear the raw guitar notes that are being played in this song. The diagrams just below are the chords used in this rhythm part
Below I explain & goe through each part of the tablature, which may help make learning this part of the song easier for you, which are my intensions.

Looking at the tablature below, this guitar rhythm piece starts out with the B5 power chord on the 7th fret of the guitar. Using your little finger you'll add the B6 note & the minor 7th note in the rhythm. For the beginning guitarist, I would suggest getting this rhythm piece down before attempting the following note run.

Now the 2nd part of this guitar piece is a note run which I divide into 2 parts. The 1st part of the note run is based off the E major chord which your using the E5 with the open E string & B note on the 2nd fret to start the note run off. The 2nd part of the note run is based off the F sharp chord, which you start with the base F sharp note on the 2nd fret and run the exact same pattern as you did starting with the E5, but this time using the notes based off the F sharp chord.
In the guitar tablature below I show you the fingers I use for each note in the run. I found this to be the most comfortable way of playing this part of the song. But each to his own, what ever way you feel most comfortable playing this part, as long as you get the run out smoothly.
