Alexander's Lament by Heart of Cygnus from the album Utopia http://www.heartofcygnus.com/ Tab by Danny Mendoza Acoustic Guitar (F Bb Eb Ab C f) Legend: h = hammer on p = pull off Chords: Em:[022000] Dsus4:[xx0233] C: [x32010] Em7: [022033] G: [320033] Cadd9:[x32033] D: [xx0232] Dsus2:[xx0230] For simplicity's sake the chords are given as their regular shape when the guitar is half a step up, or using a capo on the first fret. The intro and outro riffs are played using tap harmonics while fretting an Fm (Em shape the capo on 1st). To sound a tap harmonic, you fret the note that you want to hit, and tap the fret wire 12 frets above that note. I have indicated the fret you want to tap using a capo. 13 15 15 13 15 13 13 13 13 15 13 16 f:-------------------------0-----3-----4----------------------2-------| B:-------------------0--------0-----0-------------------------3-------| Ab:-------------0--------0-------------------------------------2-------| Eb:-------2--------2-------------------------------------------0-------| Bb:----------2---------------------------------------------------------| F:---0----------------------------------------------------------------|
