Guilty - Randy Newman
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
Randy Newman
Guilty (1974)
(Randy Newman)
From: "Good Old Boys"
Difficult, difficult. There is so much going on here: the basic piano
accompaniment stays the same throughout the verses, providing the
background for the troubling orchestra arrangement. For this tab I
decided to integrate the notes played by strings and woodwind into the
chords. Sounds disturbing, but that’s what the song is.
If that feels too hard, one can always leave out all the strange notes
and play the second and third verse using the same chords as in the first
one.
I made a quick demo of what this tab sounds like. Listen to it here:
