TAB:Rakim by Dead Can Dance
From CD-Movie: Toward The Within(1994)
Trans/noted: Andretti Benavides
ISSUE# 4 from GTML.
A augmentedA very difficul song to transcribe and play it correctly. This is 90 % O.k.
and i think i will make it.
First: Tunning :You may say WHAT¡¡¡ four strings?. Yes Four strings, this is
for mandolin (i think it is played with that) but if you have a guitar just
put a capo on 5th fret and play on the thinner strings. Notated as fret
5(capo)=0.For non capo just add 5 to every note.
Second: Trills: Move quikcly, very quickly up and down the pick under notes
that says Trill.
Third: The chords are arranged for main deep music layer, an here comes the
scales: For DM part is a A augmentedA minor.-a,b,c,d,e,f,g,a. For 
D MajorD part is a
G+G major.-g,a,b,c,d,e,f#,g. Noy you can figure out arrangements and voicing.
Thats all,for corrections, comments, contributions or anything else:
