Brain Damage (Acoustic)
Pink Floyd
Performed by Roger Waters
Tabbed by Kanavazk using Guitar Pro 5
Before I continue I just wanted to say that I'm a novice at tabbing and that
I'm really new at this, so don't go yelling 'You suck!' at me or something...
This acoustic version of Brain Damage is found in the special features on the
documentary 'Classic Albums: Pink Floyd - The Making of The Dark Side of the
Moon.' You can also see it on YouTube. It should sound very close to that video.
It's 4/4 time & standard tuning. I made no effort to make the lyrics fit to the
note it should be sung at. All I did was put the lines at the measure where
you start singing them. I didn't try to add any musical marks on it so you have
to listen to it to get the feel and dynamics and stuff.
Plus I'm a real bad guitar player.
*UPDATE* Fixed some lyrics.

man maker of this tab good tab stop putting yourself down! playing guitar isnt about how good you are ! its about having the time of your life playing! once you play and play for the hell of it you will relize how good you actaully are!

@duck killer: no it's not. watch the video in question and play to it. if you're playing to the original track on DSotM it'll sound wrong.
@CrimsonG: Since for the most part any small variations in the riffs might just be Roger Waters playing it a bit differently or screwing up, I might do that if I don't feel lazy. But I do feel lazy and I have better things to do right now, so I probably won't change the tab.
