Frail by Jars Of Clay

FRAIL - Jars of Clay
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Emily
Email: [email protected]

Tuning: standard


Hello :-)
  Here is tab for Frail! I KNOW you could play it beautifully by
listening to the CD if you wanted too, but tab is so neat I thought
you might like to have it.

  I cut it down to one mention of each different sort of chunk. If you
know how the song goes, you can tell when to play a part again
or switch to a different one. The first two lines are almost the
same as the second two - except for the end of the 2nd bar of each.
  I don't know much about time signatures!!! Each measure has 32
dash-spaces. That should work in with some version of 4/4 timing,
I think (right?!). Maybe each bar should be split in half to make
them more manageable? I don't know! Right now the notes must be
16ths (the fret number space and the dash space after it)?

  So to count it out would be something like:

 1-&-&-&-2-&-&-&-3-&-&-&-4-&-&-&-
e|--2-----------2-----------2-----|

Chord diagramG+G|----------0-----0-----0---------|
Chord diagramD MajorD|------2-----2-----2-----2-------|
Chord diagramA augmentedA|--------------------------------|
Chord diagramE MajorE|0---0---------------------------|


  or if you split each bar in half:

 1-&-2-&-3-&-4-&-|1-&-2-&-3-&-4-&-
e|--2-----------2-|----------2-----|

Chord diagramG+G|----------0-----|0-----0---------|
Chord diagramD MajorD|------2-----2---|--2-----2-------|
Chord diagramA augmentedA|----------------|----------------|
Chord diagramE MajorE|0---0-----------|----------------|
The bar with an '*' above it is different between the original demo
recording and the Much Afraid recording (One just ends on the
open 'e' instead of the open 'G'). The demo version is my
favorite so I put that in, but here is the much-afraid way:

Chord diagramG+G|------2-----2-----2------------|
Chord diagramD MajorD|0------------------------------|

Chord diagramE MajorE|-------------------------------|
  Chord diagramD MajorD

Okay, that's all! I hope you get to have some fun with it. If you
