5 AM written and performed by David Gilmour
 
Live version from 'David Gilmour Live At Pompeii'
This can be seen at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yrn-3ICP9Hw
 
The video footage focuses on David Gilmour's playing so I'm sure of the fretboard positions the
phrases are played in. Amongst the differences from the recorded version are that some phrases
are played an octave higher (e.g. bars 11-12, 18-21), each bend in bar 13 and 15 is different and
there are extra bars at the end which are not heard on the recording fade-out.
 
 
Standard tuning.
Key Em.
~73 bpm
Played using his Gibson Gold Top Les Paul
