Tubular Bells Intro tab by Mike Oldfield

Tubular Bells  ---  Mike Oldfield

                INTRO

  This part is originally played on piano and glockenspiel, but I saw
  him playing it on guitar in his video "the essential", so I tabbed
  it out. This part is only playable with an easy to learn right hand
  technique - "it is just hammering between one string and another - I
  did it on piano " (Mike). Use your thumb for the notes on d-string
  second and third finger for those on g- and b- string respectively.
  The beat goes 7/8 7/8 9/8 7/8 - so each note is 1/8 long.
