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
