Trombone Tabs

1. The notes you should play are indicated by the appropriate letters.

2. No note lengths - just number of times played. You *should* be able

to figure out when and how long notes are played. They do this in guitar tabs,

so it shouldn't be too big of a problem.

3. Sharps are indicated by a "+", flats by a "-".

4. Octaves - To indicate octaves, I use numbers. 1 refers to

the lowest octave of a note, 2 the next, 3 and so on. So, super low e

(7th position) would be e1.

5. A short set of notes surrounded by parentheses, followed by a "*" and

a number means to play that phrase that number of times. Also, if you see

"1x" or "2x" that indicates, in this case, the time

it's sung by the lead and then the reverb, respectively.

***Note from olorin@ibm.net: this particular song was damn tricky, cuz u can't

hear half the horn lines. Especially in the chorus.

***Note from me: These were transposed from the trumpet tabs by olorin@ibm.net, these tabs should be fairly accurate. They are good enough to be able to play with the CD and sound good. Thanks to Joe (Revrenjoe9@aol.com) for sending me the Trumpet Tabs to transpose from. Also thanks to Vern Weygandt (vweygandt@mindspring.com) for added assistance.
