Golden Brown

Simplificar Afinação: E A D G B ETecla: BbmCapotraste: Sem capotraste Song: Golden brown Artist: The Stranglers Album: La Folie Composers: Jean-Jacques Burnel, Jet Black, Hugh Cornwell & David Greenfield Tabbed by: DJ 31th May 2014 TIME SIGNATURES: The first part of the intro section is a bar of 6/8 followed by a bar of 7/8, before settling back into 6/8 throughout the links and verses. I find it much simpler to think of the count as 3 bars of 3/4, with a bar of 4/4 on the end... 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / | The above is the sequence until it changes to alternating from Dm to C for the verses, which are in waltz time, 3 beats for each chord. KEY: Judging by performances on Youtube the band play it live in Bbm. FINE TUNING: The original studio track is quite sharp above standard pitch, likely everything was tuned to the unusual pitch of the harpsichord. Standard pitch for A4 = 440Hz, but for the harpsicord the pitch is 415Hz. To more closely match the original studio recording, you need to use a chromatic tuner and tune all strings up between approx. + 20 to +25 cents above standard tuning and then add a capo at the first fret. CAPO: 1st fret (Will then sound in the recorded approx. key of Bbm) Played fingerstyle Chord names & fret positions are relative to the capo Am = x02210 C/D = xx0x10 F = xx3x11 Em = 022000 C = x3xx10 F/E = xx2x11 F = 133211 C/B = x2xx10 F/D = xx0x11 C/E = xx2x10 G = 320033 F/C = x3xx11 (C4) = x33010 Dm = xx0231 Please take a second to scroll down to the bottom of the page and select a star rating for my tab, thanks ====================================================== [Intro] Am Em F C/E C/D C C/B ||: / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / :|| [x3] Am Em G F F/E F/D F/C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / | [Link] Dm C Dm C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / | [Verse 1] Dm C Dm C Dm C Golden brown, texture like sun, ...lays me down, Dm C Dm C With my mind she runs ...throughout the night, Dm C Dm C Dm C No need to fight, never a frown ...with golden brown [Link] Dm C Dm C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / | [Verse 2] Dm C Dm C Every time...just like the last, Dm C Dm C On her ship, tied to the mast, Dm C Dm C To distant lands, takes both my hands, Dm C Dm C Never a frown with golden brown [As intro sequence tab] Am Em F C/E C/D C C/B ||: / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / :|| [x3] Am Em G F F/E F/D F/C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / | Dm C Dm C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / | [Verse 3] Dm C Dm C Golden brown, finer temp - tress, Dm C Dm C Through the ages she's heading west, Dm C Dm C From far a - way, stays for a day, Dm C Dm C Never a frown ...with golden brown [As intro sequence tab] Am Em F C/E C/D C C/B ||: / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / :|| [x3] Am Em G F F/E F/D F/C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / | Dm C Dm C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / | [Break] Dm C Dm C ||: / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / :|| [x4] [As intro sequence tab] Am Em F C/E C/D C C/B ||: / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / :|| [x3] Am Em G F F/E F/D F/C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / / | Dm C Dm C | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / | [Verse 4] Dm C ||: Da - ddle, da - ddle! ...Da - ddle, da - ddle, Dm C Da - ddle!
