Talking in Your Sleep The Romantics
Talking In Your Sleep
The Romantics
Standard Tuning
Three dashes = 1/8 note
I'm not sure how many guitars there really are but I've
Guitar 1 -- Clean, thin telecaster-like sound
Guitar 2 -- Clean, thin telecaster-like sound
Guitar 3 -- Clean but fuller sound with Chorus effect
For the intro, there are definitely three guitars.
For the prechorus, it sounds like two but the fingering seems
impossible so I've indicated three guitars.
Playing this song with one guitar is a challenge. I've tabbed out
what I actually play on one guitar below the "correct" tab.
