LAGUNA SUNRISE (Black Sabbath)
 ==============

 -- comp. Black Sabbath [Tony Iommi!?], 1972 (from _Vol._4_)
  -- transcribed/tabbed for two guitars: tcg, '81, '89, '94
  -- 4/4 // keys: D, F/Dm, C majorC // Andante (pretty slow)
  -- Sequence: A1-A2-B-A1-A1-A3 (note repeat signs & textual notes)
    [may wanna throw out an "A" or two--unless you got a string
    orchestra!--like Sabbath--to keep "building" interest....]
  -- chords & notes easy enough, but timing "hellacious," so had
    to resort to the dreaded w-h-q-e-s-t shorthand:
   w = whole note; h = half; q = quarter; e = eighth; s = sixteenth
   q. = dotted quarter (etc.); [q] = quarter rest (etc.)
   q-q = tied quarters (also, ===== another aid to duration)
   q3 q3 q3 = quarter triplets (etc.)

 FINAL NOTE: This is as close to the recording as I could get ten years or
  so ago--but I recall that, when playing it with a guitar buddy, the
  Asus4Asus4 & G5G5 chords seemed to clash a bit with the "lead" melody, since the
  pitch ranges are so damn close. So I substituted the following voicings
  at one point, and it worked out pretty well:

    G5G5     Asus2Asus2
    ______   ______
  VII |||1|| VII |||||1
    ||||2|   ||||||
    ||||||   |||2||
    |||||4   ||||3|    Now, about that string section....
