Cry Me A River Tab by Davy Graham

Cry Me A River tab by Davy Graham

Guitar Tab

Cry Me A River
arranged by Davy Graham

From his album 'The Guitar Player'

Tuning: EADGBE (Standard)

Key: p = pull-off    h = hammer-on
     \ = slide down  / = slide up
     b = bend        ha = harmonics

I wasn't too strict about fitting the notes to bars, but
it is close enough and each bar should count 4 beats.

Regarding learning to play this, I'd say take the same
approach to any of Davy's pieces: just throw yourself
into it! I see him as quite a rough genius, with
incredible skill and versatility, not to mention
knowledge of so many different styles, and yet often
playing with a seemingly carefree attitude. I find that
I have to throw my hands around the guitar if I want to
keep up with his speed and improvs (even on slower tracks!). Anyway....

Hope it works for you! Accept my advance apologies for
any mistakes. Thanks!
