PLAY THIS NICE AND FUNKY. CHORDS AND LYRICS BELOW.
GUITAR:
The most important part of the guitar riff is the voicing, especially the notes over the top of the chords.
I'm not much of a guitarist, but these are the tabs/voicings that I figured out:
e|-Em---------G/D------G7-----|-Cmaj7----------Bm7------Bm11------|
B|-8-8------8-8--------|-----------------5-5---|
G|-x-x------x-x--------|-4-4-------2-2---2-2---|
D|-9-9------5-5---3-3--|-5-5-------4-4---4-4---|
A|-7-7------5-5---5-5--|-2-2-------2-2---------|
E|----------------3-3--|-----------------------|
Play it staccato and rhythmic, and emphasize the top note.
I find that Cmaj7, without the bassline, can also played as:
e|Cmaj7-----|
B|-----|
G|-4-4-|
D|-5-5-|
A|-3-3-|
E|-----|
For extra funk, add mutes between strums, but this isn't recorded on the track.
BASS (example):
G|-Em-------G/D------G----|-Cmaj7--------Bm7---------|-Em--------G/D------G----|-Cmaj7--------Bm7--------|
D|-2-2----0-0-------|--------------0-0-|-----2---0-0-------|-----------------|
A|------------------|-3-3-----2-2------|-------------------|-3-3-----2-2-----|
E|--------------3-3-|------------------|-0-0-----------3-3-|--------------3--|
Feel free to improvise parts the bassline.
