A augmentedA Bert Jansch classic. There's some free time noodling at the start of
the track which was a bit long winded to tab but it's pretty easy to
figure out; besides which you'll probably want to put your own noodling
in there instead. I think Bert detunes his guitar a half step on this
track, it certianly makes the bends a bit easier anyway. He makes those
bent notes warble, too, which I haven't represented here - as usual
you'll need to work with the recording to get it exact. I think Bert used
to sometimes literally lift the strings away from the fretboard with his
right hand fingers and let them slap down to get that hard percussive
sound he's noted for. This tune is in 4/4 but watch out for the odd bar
of 6; I've added beat asterisks to these bars as a guide. He basically
plays the same pattern from verse to verse and the instrumental break.
There is also an ending which again is a little freer in time and easy to
figure out if you want to include it. I haven't tabbed it here - maybe at
a later date!
Rhythm: 4/4 with the odd bar of 6/4
