Ruby Rider, Acoustic Guitar Arrangement

Ruby Rider
Arrangement for Acoustic Guitar

Originally by Jeff Liu, Surasshu, and Stemage
From the Steven Universe episode "The Question"

Tab/Arrangement by @fretzl

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6czfynw9Bc

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B e)

STRUMMING/PICKING NOTES:
This arrangement mostly uses a steady fingerpicking/flicking
pattern of:

[thumb-pick] -> [finger-pick] -> [flick strings downward with finger] -> [finger-pick]

It's not 100% consistent though, so I've marked where all of the flicks are with
an "X" under the tab. Anything else is plucked unless otherwise noted.

SYMBOLS:

x: muted string
h: hammer on

/: slide up
\: slide down

^: finger-picked arpeggio up (pick each string upward with a different finger in quick succession)

OTHER NOTES:
Everything should more or less be spaced out according to timing,
with two hyphens (--) equating to one 8th note.

This is also in swing timing, so every two 8th notes are
actually played like the first 8th note is twice as long
as the second 8th note. Listen to the video and you'll get
the idea.

I tried to be as accurate as possible but ultimately this stuff
is a slight approximation/simplification, and you should
both refer to the video for the general feel and timing etc, and
feel free to tweak any of it if something else works better
for you.

Feel free to message me on whatever social media thing you found this
on with any questions!

TABS:

  NOTE - These can get a bit messed up on mobile, if there's a "request desktop site"
         option on your mobile browser then selecting that usually displays it properly,
         otherwise try it on a computer.
