Drake – Hotline Bling (Guitar Tab)

Auto-scroll

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Martijnfru Info: This is the melody of the song. You may notice sometimes the notes don't exactly match with Drake's voice. This is because the tones are sometimes a bit off with what the guitar can reach. Anyway, playing it with the guitar gives it a bluesy feel, which is nice. With this melody in mind, the song is kinda cool to improvise to. The scale of the tab written here is mostly the first form to make it easier to understand the notes. Have fun!

So these patterns keep repeating themselves throughout the song. There is a little bridge thing going on at the end. I say a perfect part to improvise! ;) ************************************ | r Release | b Bend ************************************
