Artist: Jimi Hendrix
Song: Remember
Album: Are You Experienced? (Appears on UK version only)
Submitted by: John Heinzl, johnheinzl@rogers.com

I'd been hunting for this TAB for years, but all I found were =20
files with garbled text. I love this song so much I decided to
sit down and transcribe it myself. This is my work alone.

that says the song is in A (my TAB is in Ab). The reason
the other file is in A, I assume, is because Jimi liked to
tune down half a step. But I'm saving you the trouble. What
you see here will sound like the record.

Questions and comments welcome. Have fun.=20

Then slide down two frets and do the same pattern, using Db7 barre =
chord.

The above patterns form the core of the first two verses. Listen
to the song a few times and you should have no trouble figuring out =
where=20
to play the Ab, Eb7 and Db7.

After the first two verses, there's a bridge:

E-------------------------------------------------------------
B-------------------------------------------------------------=20
G--8-8-8-8-8-8-etc.-------------------------6-6-6-6-6-6-etc.--
D--8-8-8-8-8-8-etc.-------------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-etc.--
A--6-6-6-6-6-6-etc.-------------------------6-6-6-6-6-6-etc.--
E-------------------------------------------------------------

Hey, pretty baby...                        Make everybody...


After the bridge, the song continues in the same pattern as the first=20
two verses, except everything is moved up two frets. The first chord=20
for this part is Bb major.


The solo during this section goes like this:


E-------------------------------6---6---6-----------------------
B-6v-6v-etc---------6v-6h8------6h8-6h8-6h8p6--4------4---------
G---------------5-7----------------------------3h5p3--3h5p3--5--
D------------5/7------------------------------------5------5---5
A----------8----------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------

E-6-----------------------6------6----------6----------
B-6h8p6---6-------------6---9b11--9p6------6--9p6------
G---------5h7p5----8b10---------------8b10--------8b10v (hold)
D--------------8---------------------------------------
A------------------------------------------------------
E------------------------------------------------------

E-----9----9---8--8----6-6------------------------------------
B-------------------6----6h8p6--6------6---6------------------
G-(10)-(10)r--8--8--6h7---------5h7p5--5h7-5h7p5--------------
D------------------------------------8----------8-----8--8----
A-------------------------------------------------8/10-10-10\-
E------------------------------------------------------------


Then it's back to the verse, starting on Bb major. There are =20
hammer-on, pull-offs during this part, that correspond with the =20
chords, like so:


E--6-----------------------13------------------11-------
B--6h8p6-------------------13h15p13------------11h13p11-
G-------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------


As the song returns to the Bb chord, play Bb7 instead of Bb major. =20
This signals that the song is about to change key again. Then slide up =20
another fret and play B major, again following the same pattern as =20
the other verses.


There are more hammer-on, pull-offs here. The phrases are similar to =20
the ones above, except with an extra hammer-on and pull-off.  I think =20
Jimi plays them at the 7th fret, 2nd fret and in the open position, =20
like so:


E--7--------------------2--------------------0----------
B--7h9p7h9p7------------2h4p2h4p2------------0h2p0h2p0--
G-------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------


The song fades out on F# major chord.


Here are the main chords. You can slide these shapes around=20
the neck to play the entire song:


Ab major:     Eb7:            Db7:          Bb7:

E A D G B E   E A D G B E     E A D G B E   E A D G B E
4 6 6 5 4 4   x 6 8 6 8 6     x 4 6 4 6 4   6 8 6 7 9 6


Peace and good luck.
