Sunshine Rag Author: Andrew York Tablature by: Gianpiero Ciammaricone gianpiero@a-vip.com http://www.geocities.com/vienna/6619 or http://cguitar.cjb.net Tablature Explanation at the end. 1st version: Finished 02/10/2002 Time signature: 4/4 Tuning: EADGBE To make it easy to learn this song, download the midi file from my page. It has a lot of tricky timings that can't be noticed in this tab. x stands for dead notes. Play them with your right hand but mute them with your left hand (You can rest your left hand over the strings) M indicates to mute the bass note with your right hand (as in palm muting for the electric guitar). This is a tricky thing to do in this song, if you want, or if it's too hard, you can play it without doing it.
