THE SUN IN THE STREAM  by Enya.

Yes, I know that Enya probably has not used guitar on any of her albums
but I think this one sounds really nice and is easy to play on guitar.

The tab is for the melody (a bagpipe I think).

I like playing this with distortion, employing vibrato with the bar
to simulate the inflections produced in the original recording.




~~~~~~ = vibrato
^      = hammer-on or pull-off
/ or \ = slide
G      = Grace Note

AND YOUR BIRD CAN SING  by Lennon/McCartney.

Here's an arrangement of AYBCS for bands that have only two guitarists,
and thus the lead guitar has to play both parts while the rhythm guy chunks away at the chords.
Admittedly a tad weak in the middle section, but it sounds pretty good in my band.

I learned this by taping the chords ***very*** slow and playing until I knew it at that speed.
Once I had it learned, it sped up pretty easily for me.

What a masterpiece this is. Aren't those chords in the middle section amazing?
When it gets back to the 'E' chord (e.g., "You may be awoken"),
it sure doesn't feel like the home key, does it?
But it all works beautifully. Cosmic bass playing by Mr. McCartney, too. Enjoy.

(B = bend up first note to second... R = release first note to second...
in both cases pick only first note)

Magic E Chord for use in AYBCS.
Note that this is a real open, twangy sounding E5 chord... sounds best on a Rickenbacker 325!
Also sounds great in "Day Tripper".

HEY! No laughing!! You try to write this stuff out!! haha



TOBACCO ROAD

I was born in a dump.
Mama died and my daddy got drunk.
Left me here to die or grow
in the middle of Tobacco Road.

Growin' up rusty shack,
all I had was hangin' on my back.
Only you know how I loathe
this place called Tobacco Road.


   Gsus2                                            D5
   But it's home, the only life I ever known.
                                       G
  Only you know how I love .....
  Tobacco Road.


Ah!  (Intro played here again)

Gonna leave, get a job
with the help and the grace from above.
Save some money, get rich I know,
bring it back to Tobacco Road.

   But it's home, the only life I ever known.
   Only you know how I love ....
  Tobacco Road.

(Lead)

Bring that dynamite and a crane,
blow it up, start all over again.
Build a town, be proud to show.
In the name Tobacco Road.

Lyrics :


And who by fire, who by water,
who in the sunshine, who in the night time,
who by high ordeal, who by common trial,
who in your merry merry month of may,
who by very slow decay,
and who shall I say is calling?

And who in her lonely slip, who by barbiturate,
who in these realms of love, who by something blunt,
and who by avalanche, who by powder,
who for his greed, who for his hunger,
and who shall I say is calling?

And who by brave assent, who by accident,
who in solitude, who in this mirror,
who by his lady's command, who by his own hand,
who in mortal chains, who in power,
and who shall I say is calling?
