When learning a Robert Pollard song for the first time, I’m sometimes deceived into thinking the guitar work is simpler than it really is. In the case of “Tabby And Lucy,” for example, I started out by playing the chorus with pretty standard chords: A5 – D5 – A5 – G – D. After listening more closely, however (and the Let It Beard Boombox Demos are definitely helpful here), I soon realized Pollard was up to some of his old guitar Pollard-isms again.
