Tuning: E A D G B E

Song: Pale Blue Eyes Artist: The Velvet Underground Album: The Velvet Underground Tuning: Standard EADGBE This is my first tab but I tried to make it as detailed as possible. It is as close as I can make it to what is played on the original recording but feel free to mess around with how it's played to get a different sound. Listen to the recording to get the rhythm right. When played well this is the one of the most devistating and melancholy songs ever. Play it on the bridge pickup with the tone around 1-4. Enjoy!
