Down River by Bert Jansch Tabbed by Jamie Phillips (jamiephillips22@hotmail.com) Artist: Bert Jansch Track title: Down River Album: Thirteen Down (Bert Jansch Conundrum) Tuning: EADGBE Capo: 3rd fret Another one of Berts easier tunes, and this one is very nice; recorded as "The Bert Jansch Conundrum" in 1979. The track features accordian and violin but works very well with just guitar and vocals. Here I've tabbed the intro and first verse but you may well find slight variations between verses. It's in 4/4 but there is a bar of 2/4 and 6/4. The asterisks are a guide :o) Rhythm 4/4 (2/4, 6/4) Intro: Beat:* * * * * * * * E||--------------0-----------|--------4-----------4-----| B||--------7--------7--------|--------5-----------5-----| G||-----6-----6--------------|-----4-----------4--------| D||--------7-----------7-----|-----------6--------------| A||--0-----------0--------0--|--4-----------4--------0--| E||--------------------------|--------------------------| * * * * * * * * x2 E--------2-----------2-----|--------4-----------4------|| B--------3-----------3-----|--------3-----------3------|| G-----2-----------2--------|-----4-----4-----4--------*|| D-----------4--------------|--------------------------*|| A--2-----------2--------2--|--------------2------------|| E--------------------------|--0--------------------0---|| Verse: * * * * * * * * E--------------0-----------|--------4-----------4-----| B--------7--------7--------|--------5-----------5-----| G-----6-----6--------------|-----4-----------4--------| D--------7-----------7-----|-----------6--6-----------| A--0-----------0--------0--|--4--------------------0--| E--------------------------|--------------------------| * * * * * * * * E--------2-----------2-----|--------4-----------4-----| B--------3-----------3-----|--------3-----------3-----| G-----2-----2-----2--------|-----4-----4-----4--------| D--------------4-----------|--------------------------| A--2--------------------2--|--------------2-----------| E--------------------------|--0--------------------0--| * * * * * * * * E--------------0-----------|--------4-----------4-----| B--------7--------7--------|--------5-----------5-----| G-----6-----6--------------|-----4-----------4--------| D--------7-----------7-----|-----------6--6-----------| A--0-----------0--------0--|--4--------------------0--| E--------------------------|--------------------------| * * * * * * * * E--------2-----------2-----|--------4-----------4-----| B--------3-----------3-----|--------3-----------3-----| G-----2-----2-----2--------|-----4-----4-----4--------| D--------------4-----------|--------------------------| A--2--------------------2--|--------------2--------2--| E--------------------------|--0-----------------------| * * * * * * * * E--------------------------|--------------------------| B--------7-----------5-----|--------2-----------3-----| G--------7-----------4-----|-----2--------------2-----| D-----7-----------6--------|-----------------4--------| A-/5--------5--4--------0--|--4-----------2-----------| E--------------------------|--2--------2-----------2--| * * * * * * * * * * E--------------------------|--------------------------------| B--------7-----------5-----|--------2-----3-----------------| G--------7-----------4-----|-----2--------2----4------------| D-----7-----------6--------|--------------4----3------------| A--5--------5--4--------0--|--4-----------2----5------------| E--------------------------|--2--------2--------------------| * * * * * * * * * * E--------------------------|--------------------4-----|--------4-----| B--------------------2-----|--------3-----------3-----|--------3-----| G--------2--------2--------|--------2--------4-----4--|-----4--------| D-----2-----2--------------|-----4--------------------|-----------2--| A--4-----------------------|--2--------2--------------|--2-----------| E--------------2--------2--|--------------0-----------|--------------| * * * * * * * * E--------------0-----------|--------4-----------4-----| B--------7--------7--------|--------5-----------5-----| G-----6-----6--------------|-----4-----------4--------| D--------7-----------7-----|-----------6--------------| A--0-----------0--------0--|--4-----------4--------0--| E--------------------------|--------------------------| * * * * * * * * E--------2-----------2-----|--------4-----------4-----|| B--------3-----------3-----|--------3-----------3-----|| G-----2-----------2--------|-----4-----4-----4--------|| D-----------4--------------|--------------------------|| A--2-----------2--------2--|--------------2-----------|| E--------------------------|--0--------------------0--|| TAB guide: / = slide into from below www.TAB6.com
