Song: John The Fisherman

Guitar transcribed by CAM.


This is a fairly easy song to learn, and a fun one to play.
Here's the basic structure. Play it with the song to get
the rhythm and strumming pattern down nice.


h =hammer on
/ =slide up
\ =slide down
v =vibrato



Intro:
e------------------------------------------------------------
B------------------------------------------------------------
G--4-5-6--4-5-6--4-5-6--4-5-6--4-5-6--4-5-6----4-5/7-6-------
D--4-5-6--4-5-6--4-5-6--4-5-6--4-5-6--4-5-6----4-5/7-6-------
A--2-3-4--2-3-4--2-3-4--2-3-4--2-3-4--2-3-4----2-3/5-4-------
E------------------------------------------------------------


The verses of the song all follow this basic structure. There
are a few different variations you can listen for, but in
general, they are played like this a couple times with a
slight change at the end before the song moves to a chorus.

Verse:                                             v
e----------------------------------------------13--10--------
B--/9--/9---/9--/9---/6--/9--/9---/9--/12--/12---------------
G--/10-/10--/10-/10--/7--/10-/10--/10-/13--------------------
D---------------------0--------------------------------------
A------------------------------------------------------------
E------------------------------------------------------------


This is the basic chorus line. Repeat a couple times adding
subtle differences here and there, like sliding up to the
9th fret on the B and e strings and down again. Listen to
the song to see what I mean.

Chorus:
e-----------------9--------------------9--------------------9
B-----------------9--------------------9--------------------9

                                                  v

D--4-5-7-6---------------------------/11\--------------------
A--2-3-5-4---------------------------------/11---------------
E------------------------------------------------------------


The rest of the song uses the same riffs as described above.
Again, listen to the song to piece it together. Nice!
