ong and Winding Road - Lennon & McCartney
Tuning - drop D (D A D G B E)
Keycode - (letter) - section name
h - hammer on
..........A - artificial harmonics (see Appendix)
Roadmap: Play as follows A A' B A'' C A' D
Section A and A' are the same except measure 9.
Section A'' is played using artificial harmonics. If this is too difficult,
play Section A.
Section D is the ending that is entered after measure 11 of Section A'
** Section A **
Start with a pick-up measure (measure #0)
Measure #1: B note is fretted instead of open B so that F#, D and B can ring.
If difficult, use open B.
Measure #2: Whatever the chord is, it sounds good
Measure #3: You can slide your pinky from 5th fret to 3rd fret on D string

Measure #5: x2x032 chord is fingered xIx0RM (index on 5th, middle on 1st, and
ring on 2nd strings) - a little tricky
Measure #7: the number in () may be added.

Measure #11: G note is fingered with pinky
Measure #12: G note is fingered with index
(there are other possibilities - you can play D7 in Meas#11 on 5th pos)
Measure #12: The last note F# is a pick-up note and is not sometimes played

** Section A' **
Measure #9 is the only difference from Section A so I repeat Measures #9 - 12
only

** Section B **
Repeat this twice for Section B
The timing is a little funny; I think I've added extra beats. If you like
to be "true" to the Beatles, take out a few notes here and there :-)

** Section A'' **
In this section, the melody is played entirely using artificial harmonics (as
indicated by A after the number). See Appendix for artificial harmonics. Note
that sometimes bass notes are staggered so the harmonics can be heard. I
chnage things around and this is just an example of how you could do it.

** Section C **
This is the part where strings come in. Sustain notes as much as possible and
make guitar sounds like string section ;-P

** Section D (end) **
This is the CODa section, and you come here after you play measure #11 of
section A' (or A).
Measure #4: Artificial harmonics again. If you prefer, just omit "A" and fret
as numbered. I finger this chord by using ring finger to hold 5th AND 6th
strings.
Measure #5: Yes, this single note can make or kill the tune. Get a clear tone!
