So I guess that makes it a birthday present. Thanks for Velcro, Stratocasters, and Dennis Miller, you imperialist dogs ;) Warning - this is tough. And it's the easy part. Guy Van Duser does the whole thing on "American Fingerstyle Guitar", Rounder Records. "The Stars and Stripes Forever" (excerpt) Guy Van Duser : arrangement, John Philip Sousa : Composer This is the main melody - the bit children learn as "Be kind to your web-footed friends, for a duck may be somebody's mother" -------------|-0----------|------------|------------| -------0-----|-------3--2-|-2--------2-|-2----------| -------------|----2-----2-|----2--5--2-|-2----------| -------------|----2-----2-|----2-----2-|------------| -------------|-0-----0----|-0----------|-0----0--0H4| -0--2--4-----|------------|-------0----|---0-0-0----| -------------|------------|------------|------------| -----------2-|-2--------2-|-5-----2--5-|-3----------| ----2--5---2-|----2--5--2-|----2-----2-|----1-----1-| -2---------2-|----2-----2-|----2-----2-|----2-----2-| -------------|-0----------|-4-----0--4-|-2----------| -------0-----|-------0----|------------|-------0----| -------------|------------|------------|------------| -0---------0-|-0--------0-|-0--------0-|-3----------| ----1------1-|----1--3--1-|----1--3--1-|-1----------| ----0------0-|----0-----0-|----0-----0-|------------| -2-----------|-2----------|-2----------|-2---------2| -------0-----|-------0----|-------0----|--0-0H4-0H4-| -------------|----0-----0-|-2-----2----|------------| ------2---0--|-2----------|----3-----1-|-0----------| -------------|-2----------|----2-----2-|----1-----1-| 2------------|----2-------|-0-----1----|-2--------0-| -------------|-0-----2--4-|------------|-------2----| --0---2---4--|------------|------------|------------| -----------0-|-0----------|------------|------------| -------------|-------3--2-|-2--------2-|-2----------| ----1------1-|----2-----2-|----2--5--2-|-2----------| ----0------0-|----2-----2-|----2-----2-|------------| -------------|-0-----0----|-0----------|-0----0--0H4| -4------0----|------------|-------0----|---0-0-0----| -------------|------------|------------|------------| -----------2-|-2-----1--2-|-3--2-------|-0----------| -----2---5-2-|----4-----4-|----4---4-1-|----1-----0-| --2--------2-|----3-----3-|----3-----3-|----3-----3-| -------------|------------|------------|------------| ---------0---|-4-----4----|-4------4---|-4-----3----| -------------|------------|------------|-5----------| -------------|------------|-1-----0----|----2-----2-| -2---------2-|-2-----1--2-|----2-----2-|----2-----2-| ----4------4-|----3-----3-|----1-----1-|----2-----2-| -------4-----|-------3----|------------|-0----------| -2-----------|-1----------|-1-----1----|-------0----| -------------|-0----------|-0----------|---------|----| ----------2--|-2--------2-|-2--------2-|-0-------|----| -----2H4-----|-2---2H4----|-2---2H4--2-|-1-------|--2-| -------------|-2----------|-2----------|-0-------|--2-| -0-----------|------------|------------|---------|--4-| -------------|------------|------------|---0H2-4-|--5-| www.TAB6.com
