[Sukiyaki (Ue O Muite Arukou) by Kyu Sakamoto]
{**capo on 7th fret**}
This can be tuned five half-steps down from Standard tuning,
in B-tuning (B E A D F# B) but preferably capo-ed on 7th fret
and played with higher tones higher up on the guitar. Included
are the phonetic lyrics; note that A, E, I, O, and U sounds
are pronounced ah, eh, ee, oh, ooh, respectively. Hyphens
denote where a regularly one-syllable sound is divided and
sung as two syllables and two notes (ie. the 3-syllable word
"muite" in the song is sung as 4 syllables, "mu-uite"). I
chose the C-Am-F-G chords because they're easy to play and
transition between (and to avoid chords like B7, Fdim, D7...),
even though it has to be transposed up 7 steps to match the
actual track. This has been interpreted for easy playing/
reading. It helps a lot to listen to the track to figure out
the timing of the chords if it is not so apparent on this page.
Hopefully this helps you learn the lyrics as well as the
chords. Enjoy playing along.
