Andrew Bird – Don The Struggle (Guitar Solo Tab)

Heya. This is the first bit of tab i've published and basically the first bit of music i've learnt by ear in about 5 years of teaching myself so: A) look at me go! B) It might be wrong. Anyway, this is the gist of it. I think it's polyrthmic. As you can probably figure its broken down into, like ... I want to say, 4 (?) chord sections (????) which would make sense from the chord's page saying it's G-C-D-C which is a fairly standard progression for him I feel. Anyway...If you're following the chords along with this you'd be tricked to thinking it should start on the G, but no: it starts on the D, presumably functioning as the 5th in order to walk into the root - I guess. SO yeah the polyrthm starts off on the beat on the first D and then starts to kind of lag one note at a time until it comes to the end, so keep that in mind as you try and figure it out. Also the first go round of this actually has a slightly different ending, where it drops a note. CBA going back and editing it though because it's the kind of thing you can figure out by listening.

If im dead wrong and anybody wants to let me know feel free. Truth be told it does actually sound a little funny when i do it through headphones, but it is the closest I can do it by ear considering that it's on piano and im transposing it to guiter (incidentally, I've transposed it to guitar because I don't have my piano in my flat but I'd eventually like to teach it to myself one day, and I reckon I could agonisingly transfer this into real sheet music. Maybe posting this tab will make me more likely to come back and actually do that on when I eventually get a little cottage and a big piano and a wife and a dog). Also my guitar was running through a bunch of pedals because I hate how my guitar sounds. and also it was at 75% speed on YouTube which sounds absolutely ass. ************************************ | (n) Ghost note ************************************
