American Woman Lenny Kravitz

This song appears on Lenny Kravitz's rerelease of 5, as well as the Austin Powers II: The Spy Who Shagged Me soundtrack.

NOTES: This song was an origional hit in the 80's by the Guess Who. It is played in Standard tuning (eBGDAE). Lenny Kravitz uses a distortion box for his version. Later on in the song a Crybaby Wah comes in to use as well. I use a Danelectro Fab Tone¨. During the solo everything is dropped down one fret. I will work on the solo and re-post this tab. I am posting the tab without the solo to have it available as quickly as possible.

 This song appears on Lenny Kravitz's rerelease of 5, as well as the Austin Powers II: The Spy Who Shagged Me soundtrack.
 
 NOTES: This song was an origional hit in the 80's by the Guess Who. It is played in Standard tuning (eBGDAE). Lenny Kravitz uses a distortion box for his version. Later on in the song a Crybaby Wah comes in to use as well. I use a Danelectro Fab Tone¨. During the solo everything is dropped down one fret. I will work on the solo and re-post this tab. I am posting the tab without the solo to have it available as quickly as possible.
