   59th Street Bridge Song (also Feelin' Groovy) - Simon and Garfunkle

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Joshua J
Email: joshua@ccbikeshop.com

Tuning: Standard tuning
Capo: 1st Fret
Key: D#

The fingering shown here assumes NO CAPO IS USED. But Simon and 
Garfunkle appear to use this fingering (as best I can figure out from a CD) 
capoed on the 1st fret.

I know no one will believe me but I figured this out by ear. In other words
it isn't perfect, but its sure is stinkin' close!

	*Ok this is hard, bar the Achord (x02220@1)with your index fingering (you 
	won't play high Estring) (022100@1)and put your ring finger on the fourth 
	fret of the Astring. (x02220@1)Pluck the Band (x2444x@1)Astrings (x02220@1)and slide your 
	ring finger to make the bass note "slide" down and carefully lift 
	that finger to let the Astring (x02220@1)ring freely. All this WHILE you 
	continue to play the next three notes :( This particular sliding 
	bass is used throughout the entire song wherever this A/C#is (042220@1)played.

	*Harmonic on seventh fret at the same time you play the 9th fret on 
	the high estring, (022000@1)sounds really cool :D
