Song: The Width Of A Circle Artist: David Bowie Tabbed By: bmchrestoff (and my buddy Chris B) (July 25, 1993 to September 28, 1993) IMPORTANT PERFORMANCE NOTES: 1) David has the 2 lowest strings (E) on his 12 string Harptone guitar tuned in unison instead of the standard octave apart. 2) This note "ad lib on G string w/ random vibrato and pull-offs" down in the tab is Mick Ronson doing g0D knows what. I didn't even attempt to tab it out but if I was to guess Mick is shaking his guitar and randomly doing pull-offs and vibrato. 3) The very long extended solo and musical links are as close as my old ears can determine what Mick is doing. I cannot promise every hammer on and pull off was captured on tab. 4) David employs many interesting chord shapes to add color to the recording. The problem is the production has Mick's Gibson out front and so heavy that David's 12 string Harptone gets pushed aside. 3) See additional Important Performance Notes below.

============================================================================================================ IMPORTANT PERFORMANCE NOTE: Mick Ronson uses his Gibson Les Paul to perform a very fast E to E9sus4 Rhythm fill throughout this song that will take some practice to master. In the interest of space f/ tab I have a cheap compressed version of the fill that does not truly show how Mick actually plays it. I show it here below in its entirety and have it designated w/a (Fill "A" Here) Mick will sometimes end it w/ just 2 strums instead of the 3 I have shown.

IMPORTANT PERFORMANCE NOTE: David Bowie uses his Ziggy era Harptone 12 string acoustic in a similar fashion when Mick is beating the daylights out of his Gibson but in a more traditional down-up-down strumming pattern f/ what I call Fill "B". David employs a second 12 string fill I call "C" that is tricky to catch but it is there if you listen closely enough.
