Tab - Now that's refreshing! I haven't seen any in a while since we

lost our

connection to the net. All I can get is the 'rmmga' mail.

Thanks for the

tab, Paul. Here're a couple more lines words off the top of my head..

Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry....

Because the wind is high, it blows my mind....

The following tab is from Neil Hogan's "A

Neil also offers a 100 page tab book of

all the arrangements.....great stuff

folks!! Regards, Jim Jarrell

Because

(Lennon/McCartney)

Arrangement: Neil Hogan

From: A Beatles Collection

CD/tab book available from

Joplin & Sweeney Music

334 North Santa Cruz Ave

Los Gatos, Ca 95030

(408) 395-7818 or 1-800-395-7818

or neilhogan@aol.com

Permission to post tab from Neil Hogan.

Following is from tab book.

In Because, notes with stems down (bass

notes) are not all played with the thumb.

Many notes in the lower voice are really

harmony notes and played with right hand

fingers.

In measure 27, the D#m7-5 chord is played

using the 1st finger to fret notes on two

different frets. The tip of the finger

plays the D# on the 5th string while the

base of the finger plays the A on the 1st

string.

Measure 37 has a bar on the 11th fret while

also playing the 1st, 2nd and 3rd strings

at the 14th fret with the 4th finger.

In the last measure, the notes on the 1st

and 2nd strings are played with the 3rd and

4th fingers so they can be held down while

playing the hammer-on below them. I know

it's not easy, but who said guitar playing

was supposed to be fun?...Neil Hogan

(OBTW...try open 4th string as first note

in measure 9 vice as written...didn't want

to fool with your tab Neil...but its sure

easier my way!! :-) Jim
