TEARDROP
by Massive Attack

Key Amaj Tempo 77BPM
D A D G B E

This is the easiest loop in this songbook, as it only consists of one guitar and one
percussion part for two bars - with the chords played over top once the
looper is in safe mode.

However, for the guitar melody we'll be overdubbing the same part twice for
a '12 string guitar' effect. Please note that we're using 'drop D' tuning on this
song to add depth. This means that we'll be tuning the wound E string down
a full tone.

Record this guitar loop twice.

And now the percussion (kick, snare)

That's it! This loop can run through the whole song. If your amplifier has
reverb I recommend turning this effect up higher than usual to create a bigger,
more ethereal sound.

Tip: On the original recording, a harpsicord effect is used for the melody. To
replicate the sharpness of this sound - pick the strings on the first overdub as
normal, then on the second guitar overdub, pick each string about an inch from
the bridge.
