Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
Notes: These rhythms are hard to tab, so you'll have to
listen to the CD and get the number of strums down. That
is hard to notate....Also, learn to use your pinky...Other-
wise, you won't be able to play this song. It's pretty easy,
once you learn the stretches, and the rhythms. Also, to my
knowledge, Jeff or Emerson do *not* tune down 1/2 step, but
I always do when I play most of their songs. They use a capo,
which will raise the pitch, but not the key. Trust me, this
is as close as you will get...Maybe just lower in pitch.
Also, the lead is *not* transcribed...Only the rhythm.
Sorry. Lastly, there a lot of individual notes that are
simply picked within the chord structure....Hard to notate....
Again, listen to the CD....Please e-mail me with any corrections.
