------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If I Can Dream - Elvis Presley ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Ari Cohen Email: guitaricohen@aol.com (feel free to email me for questions, but make the subject line say "Guitar Tab Questions", otherwise I'll delete it/won't read it) Tuning: Standard (EADGBe) sidenote- 1) The intro is the trumpet part at the beginning of the song tabbed out into a guitar part. I wrote it this way so you can play the song without a band (just you and your guitar, which is the way I prefer playing it). 2) Some of the chords might look incorrect in their placement regarding the lyrics, but they are correct. 3) Listen to the song for strumming patterns. -Intro- e|----(------0-0-0-----0-0-0---0-0-0-0--)--------------------------------------| B|----(------1-1-1-----x-3-1---1-1-1-1--)--------------------------------------| G|----(------0-0-0-----0-0-0---0-0-2-0--)---(Times 4)--------------------------| D|----(-2------------2------------------)--------------------------------------| A|----(-3------------3------------------)--------------------------------------| E|----(---------------------------------)--------------------------------------| -Body- C (x32010@1) Am (x02210@1) F (133211@1) G7 (320001@1) There Must Be Lights Burning Brighter Some-where C (x32010@1) Am (x02210@1) Dm (xx0231@1) G7 (320001@1) Got To Be Birds Flying Higher In A Sky More Blue; C (x32010@1) C7 (x32310@1) F (133211@1) E7 (020130@1) Am (x02210@1) If I Can Dream Of A Better Land, Where All My Brothers Walk Hand In Hand, C (x32010@1) Am (x02210@1) F (133211@1) C (x32010@1) Am (x02210@1) Dm7 G7 (320001@1) Tell Me Why Oh Why Oh Why Can't My Dreams Come True?
