Simon+And+Garfunkel - So+long+frank+lloyd+wright




From: Rich Kent 

This is a beautiful song played on a classical guitar, Paul Simon fingerpicks
throughout. 
This is not really in his usual style it has a rhumba feel in 4/4
Note that halfway through the tune he takes off his capo and plays it open...
I hope you enjoy it, it sure took long enough to tab out..
Notes and lyrics are at the end....

Notes:

Instrumental I
--------------

Paul Simon plays underneath the flute from the beginning up to the first Ab, 
then he skips somewhere and I'm not sure where, you'll have to work it out 
yourself...

Instrumental II
---------------

He plays from the Gm7 to C7 (marked by stars)
