Squonk - Genesis tutorial / how-to / lesson

Here’s my interpretation of Squonk by Genesis from the Trick of the Tail album.
At 6:12 I say A7; should be Am7.
The ending section, for those who want to know, is in B mixolydian… or E major, starting on the V chord 😉
I hope this is helpful.

This is great. So many tabs have the chords completely wrong. This is the only place I've found it has it right, thank you!

[@polygraphovich]

Thank you, Reid! It’s good to know you find it useful (nice to hear it’s right, too 😀).

Dude! This was so well done. You even made an idiot bass player like me to get it. I needed this for the next episode. Thank you so much!

really hard to read the notes.. chorus and verse iknow but what is the the bridge

[@polygraphovich]

Hi. If by bridge you mean the “go a little faster…” part I play:
| C/D Dm | Gm C/D | (C/D) Dm | F Am7 | Dm ||: Eb | 2/4 Bb | 4/4 F Am7 | Dm :||
Hope this helps!
