This hit was written by the great song writer Graham Gouldman and made famous by The Hollies.
I wrote an alternate Intro and Outro to make the song a little more interesting (the
Intro and Outro are also included). Also, you will see that I merely supplied the chords
along with the lyrics instead of tabbing them. Enjoy.
Tabbed by: BASSteve
Tuning: EADGBE
Time signature: 4/4
r = rest (listen for duration)
{}= note inside pointed parenthesis still ringing from previous measure
*My tabs are meant to be read in conjunction with listening to the song.
In other words, there are no specific notations to account for note/rest duration.
However, you will find that I’ve made an attempt to strategically space the notes
and rests within their respective measures in order to represent the appropriate durations.
