BRIAN WILSON - Surf's Up
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Dabarro
Email: dbguitar9@yahoo.es
Tuning: Standard
Surprised by the fact that there's no tab for this beautiful song in the
site I put myself to work on it. I use a MIDI file I found around to figure
out the notes, since I can't read sheet music. Bare in mind that this song
is played on piano and many of the chords are not "guitar-friendly" ones.
Bb/G
A diamond necklace played the pawn
Hand in hand some drummed along, oh
Dm/F
To a handsome man and baton
Bb/G
A blind class aristocracy
Back through the opera glass you see
Dm/F
The pit and the pendulum drawn
Bb Bb/G F C D
Columnated ruins do mi no
G A
Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
D/A
Are you sleeping?
Bb/G
Hung velvet overtaken me
Dim chandelier awaken me
Dm/F
To a song dissolved in the dawn
Bb/G
The music hall a costly bow
The music all is lost for now
Dm
To a muted trumperter swan
Bb Bb/G F C D
Columnated ruins do mi no
G A
Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
D/A D [* read note at end]
Are you sleeping, Brother John?
Ab6
Dove nested towers the hour was
Cm/Bb
Strike the street quicksilver moon
Ab6
Carriage across the fog
Cm/Bb
Two-Step to lamp lights cellar tune
Dm7 Gm7 C F
The laughs come hard in Auld Lang Syne
Dm7
The glass was raised, the fired rose
Gm7 C F9add F
The fullness of the wine, the dim last toast- ing
Dm7 Gm7 C F
While at port adieu or die
Dm7
A choke of grief heart hardened I
Gm7 C F
Beyond belief a broken man too tough to cry
Ab6
Surf's Up
Cm/Bb
Aboard a tidal wave
Ab6
Come about hard and join
Cm/Bb
The young and often spring you gave
Fm/C
I heard the word
Cm
Wonderful thing
Fm7 Cm Bb Cm
A children's song
Fm Cm
A children's song
Bb Cm
Have you listened as they played
Fm Cm
Their song is love
Bb Cm
And the children know the way
Fm Cm
A children's song
Bb Cm
Have you listened as they played
Fm Cm
Their song is love
Bb Cm
And the children know the way
Fm
A Child.
*** NOTE: In that part, at the end of 'brother John' there's a descending
arrangement over the D chord that goes A G F# (those are notes, not chords).
It can be played with an inversion of D, like this one: xx0235, a Dsus4 and
a regular D. That way you have the descending bit on your high e string.
So, that's it, enjoy!
