The Beatles – Blackbird (Guitar Intro Tab)

Versions (5)

Auto-scroll

This tab is for a school project so apologies if anything may sound a little off. I tried to create some harmonies and melodic lines (guitar two) to go along with the standard way of playing this song (guitar one), so hopefully it sounds okay for anyone else looking for a simple, fingerstyle, duet piece. :) [Intro] Guitar One
