Beatles (Mouseover for the latest Paul Mccartney Videos and News)  Send " Beatles" Ringtones to your Cell The Tabs Are Below Learn To Read Tab Chords Handbook Corrections & Additions Guitar Lessons Get Official Tab Beatles tabs @ 911Tabs   Date: Sat, 22 Aug 92 17:14:21 MDT From: The Mighty Tabster <habbinga@ucsu.Colorado.EDU> Subject: The Beatles -- Blackbird   Well, in one of my fits of insanity, I arranged the Beatles' tune "Blackbird" for bass. The following is the arrangement, which combines the vocal line and the guitar line. I've worked on it on and off for about a week, and can play it almost up to speed. You will notice that some of the rhythms don't add up per measure. This is due to some notes in the chords having different lenghts, which I can't show in tab. Also, '$' means "D.S. Sign" and '@' is a fermata. The arrangement is in the original key (G), which means I use 24 frets. If you don't have 24 frets on your bass, just move everything down a couple of frets.   Enjoy!   Erik     The Beatles: Blackbird ======================== $ q q q E s+s s e e e e e q e q s s s e e +------------+-----------------+-------------+-------------------------19-+ |3:-17-17-17-|2:-19------------|-19----------|*3:-17-17-17-17-17-17-17----| |4:-14-15-17-|4:-21------21----|----21----21-|*4:-14----15----------17----| +---15-17-19-+---22-22------22-+-------22----+----15----17----------19----+     E s+s s e e e e e q e q e q q q e E s+s s e +-19------------+-19----------+-16----14-14-+-14-14-17-19-+-16---------16-+ |---------------|-------------|-14-17-14----|-16----16----|-17------17----| |-17------17----|----17----17-|-15----16----|-17----18----|-19-19---------| +-15-15------15-+-------15----+-------------+-------------+---------------+     e e e e q q E s+s s s e e e e h e e e +-16----------+-14-16-+-12---------12-+-12----------+-12-12-12-14-+ |-17-17----17-|-16-14-|-14------14----|-13-13----13-|-12----------| |-18----18----|-17-16-|-15-15---------|-15----15----|-14----------| +-------------+-------+---------------+-------------+-------------+   ---------------------------------------- To Coda 1. h e e e h e e e E s+s s e q q h q h q +-16-14-------+-14----16-14-+---------------+-------+-------+-17----+ |-14----17-14-|-14-17-------|-17------------|-------|-17----|-17----| |-16----------|-15----------|-14------14----|-15-14-|-16----|-17-17-| +-------------+-------------+-15-15------15-+-------+-17-17-+-------+   ---------------------------------- |2.
