Brokeback Mountain - The Wings Tab by Misc Soundtrack


After watching Brokeback Mountain, I just had to find the tab for this song.
Unfortunately, there were none to be found, so I decided to figure it out and
tab it.  Much thanks to Adam, who helped me when I was stuck.  A beautiful song,
which fits perfectly with the movie.

First fingerpick this all the way through:
                ~~~~Part 1~~~~                       ~~~~Part 2~~~~
e |--X----X----X----x----x---x---x---x--|--x---x----x----x----x----x----x--|
A |--0----1----3----6----5---1---1---0--|--0---1----0----x----x----x----x--|
D |--X----X----X----x----x---x---x---x--|--x---x----x----2----x----x----x--|
G |--X----X----X----x----x---x---x---x--|--x---x----x----x----2----2----x--|
B |--X----0----2----5----3---0---0---x--|--x---0----x----0----3----3----2--|
E |--3----X----X----x----x---x---x---3--|--3---x----3----x----x----x----3--|
                Listen to the song for correct timing

   After playing, repeat Part 1 (x3) and then repeat Part 2 (x2).

Then strum Part 3 (x3) and then Part 4 (x2):
                ~~~~Part 3~~~~                       ~~~~Part 4~~~~

                Listen to the song for correct strumming & timing


Well, that's it.  It's a pretty short song, but because of it's structure, you
can play around with it and make it longer if you like.  Let me know if I screwed
something up, and please do NOT post this on any other website without my permission!
