"Nobody Loves An Iceberg" by Ronni Le Tekro Artist : Ronni Le Tekro Song : Nobody Loves An Iceberg Album : Extra Strong String Tuning : Normal Transcribed by : Yutaka Uchimura (yutaka@twave.net) I'm not too sure how the guitars were tuned in this song because if the tuning were normal, then it would be impossible to get the low Eb note during the chorus. The E string could be tuned down to Eb or D. Since Ronni and Ken were playing like this in the video I've seen : A|----------6----------------6-- E|-6---5--1---------6---5--1---- I decided to go with this even though the Eb note on the A string should be an octave lower. This song has many overdubbed guitars and I picked the ones I could hear. Some guitars are very low in volume and almost impossible to hear. Be careful with the spacing in the tab. Some lines have more space than the others because I tried to line up 2 guitar parts vertically. Solo should be easy since there's no machine gunning :) Enjoy!
