Alex G ((Sandy) Alex G) – Sportstar (Guitar Intro Tab)

Just saw Alex G last week and heard Sportstar live for the first time and it resonated with me. Here's a first pass at the main riff. Might experiment with different tunings to try and translate it better from piano. I think the key is F#maj / D#m. [Intro]
