Tabbed by: Dieu des hommes (Gregory Collins)

Artist: Yes
Song: Roundabout
Album: Fragile

Standard Tuning: e-B-G-D-A-E
Difficulty: Intermediate

I haven't seen a decent full tab up, so I thought I'd share the tab
I made for myself to remember the song. It's all tabbed by ear so
I can't promise 100% accuracy. I also apologise for the lack of timing
notations as this is the first tab I've shared. So just keep your ear 
on the song and play along to get the timing. I hope you enjoy!

If there's any suggestions e-mail me at Rechiau@hotmail.com

however if you're playing on your own you can still play it to keep the rhythm going

Outro

It's hard to hear this part, but he's certainly playing an Em chord various times, 
just listen to the song and play the chord with whatever technique you find easiest.
