--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If You See Her, Say Hello - Jeff Buckley --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transcribed by: Amilien This is Jeff's cover of Bob Dylan's 'If You See Her, Say hello' as performed live at Sin-é (from the album, 'Jeff Buckley Live at Sin-é') https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZRkFucfZH4 Its played with a slide so you will need one if you don't have one. I play this with the slide on my index finger. This is my first tab so hopefully its legible. I've played it to the song and it sounds pretty much 100% accurate to me. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Open D MajorD e - D MajorD BB - A augmentedA G+G - F#F# D MajorD - D MajorD A augmentedA - A augmentedA E MajorE - D MajorD CAPO: 2nd Fret Tab notation relative to capo
Notation 🏷Legend: ~~ or ~ : Use slide and move your finger back and forth (or up and down) to rapidly vibrate to create sound +~ : Smack your slide down on the fret and vibrate ~| : Use your slide but don't vibrate, just rest it on the fret h : Hammer on p : Pull off BB : bend R : release s : slide (between frets, using your finger slide) * : strum for as long as necessary (listen to song to know how long) You use the slide for most parts, the parts without a ~ above mean you play them with your fingers --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Main Riff: In the tab I have simplified the main riff so that that tab isn't too confusing or messy. It looks like this: D MajorD |-0s12s5s0---| A augmentedA |-0s12s5s0---| F#F# |-0s12s5s0---| D MajorD |-0s12s5s0---| A augmentedA |-0s12s5s0---| D MajorD |-0s12s5s0---| If you cant work out how to play it exactly, here it is note for note, however its quite hard to portray accurately. A augmentedA / means you strum. / / / / / / D MajorD |--12--12s0--0s5--5--5--5s0------------------------| A augmentedA |--12--12s0--0s5--5--5--5s0------------------------| F#F# |--12--12s0--0s5--5--5--5s0------------------------| D MajorD |--12--12s0--0s5--5--5--5s0------------------------| A augmentedA |--12--12s0--0s5--5--5--5s0------------------------| D MajorD |--12--12s0--0s5--5--5--5s0------------------------|
