Prelude by Billy Joel Song: Prelude Artist: Billy Joel Tabbed by: Dave Porter (SuitsJones@juno.com) This is my first tab, so please excuse the sloppiness. Me and my friend transcribed this song for our music technology class, so it should be close. The bassist basically plays Billy’s left hand, so it’s easy to follow along with and get the timing right. |< third time only >| G-------------|-------------|------------|------------| D-------------|-------------|---1--3-33--|---0--1-11--| A-3------3----|-3------3----|3-----------|1-----------| E-------------|-------------|------------|------------| G-------------|------------|-7--|-5--|-7--|--5--2-0------| D-------------|------------|----|----|----|---------2-0--| A----1--3-33--|---0--1-11--|----|----|----|--------------| E-3-----------|1-----------|----|----|----|--------------| |< ( 2x ) >| G----2-0----0--2-0------|----2-0----0---------| D---------0--------2-0--|---------0----2-0----| A-3---------------------|-3----------------3--| E-----------------------|---------------------| G------------------------|--------------|------------------- D---0----5-4--0-2------0-|------------0-|--0---5-4--0-2----0 A-2---2------------2-3---|33333-333-2---|2---2----------3-2- E------------------------|--------------|------------------- 2nd time G---------|----------|-------------------------------- D---------|----------|---1--3-33----0--1-11----------- A-3-------|-3-----3--|-3----------1-----------1--3-33- E------3--|----------|----------------------3--------- G-----------|5---1-2------------|5---1-2---------0-| D-----------|--------2-3--------|--------2-3-------| A---0--1-11-|------------3-5----|------------3-5---| E-1---------|----------------3--|------------------| G-------------------|-------------------| D---0---------------|---0---------------| A-3-----2-3---0-2-3-|-3-----2-3---0-2-3-| E-------------------|-------------------| www.TAB6.com
