Winterlong by Neil Young Also famously covered by The Pixies This is not a version played by anyone I know (although I'm sure someone else may have it together like I have). All I've done is take the basic chords of the verses and intro and combined them with lead line. The rest, I'm afraid, I haven't added anything to, mainly because I'm too busy singing the time. If you think of anything, obviously, let us all know :o) For these parts I've just put the chords and the lyrics. This is not an exact tab as I tend to play extra stings accidentally on purpose. Give a go, you'll see what I mean. P.S. Where I've put (1b) / (2b) for the number of bars the chord is played for, I may be wrong. Not knowing the time signature I'm sure some bozo will tell us all it's actually half a and a full bar but to all those bozo's out there, I've communicated what I mean so shut up! P.P.S. This is my first ever tab!! :o) Intro C (x32010@1) Am (x02210@1) F (133211@1) FC CE (x32010@1)|-----------0-----0---------0-----0---------0-----0-----------0-0-0--| B |-----------1-1-3---3-1-0-1-1-1-3---3-1-0-1-1-1-3---3-0-0-----1-1-1--| G |---------0-0-0--------00---2-2--------22-2-2-2-----------2-0-2-0-0--| D |---0-2-3---2-2--------22---2-2--------22-2-3-3---------------3-2-2--| A |-3---------3---------------0----------0----0-----------------0-3-3--| E |-----------X---------------X---------------X-----------------X-X-X--| Verse 1 CE (x32010@1)|----------------0--------0--------------| B |----------------1--1--3-----3--1---0--1-| G |-------------0--0--0-------------0-0--0-| D |----0--2--3-----2--2-------------2-2----| A |-3--------------3-----------------------| E |----------------X-----------------------| I waited for you winterlong, AmE (x02210@1)|-0--------0--------------| B |-1--1--3-----3--1---0--1-| G |-2--2-------------2-2--2-| D |-2--2-------------2-2--2-| A |-0----------------0------| E |-X-----------------------| You seem to be where I belong, F (133211@1) F (133211@1)C (x32010@1)CE (x32010@1)|-0--------0-----------------0--0--0--| B |-1--1--3-----3--0--0--------1--1--1--| G |-2--2-----------------2--0--2--0--0--| D |-3--3-----------------------3--2--2--| A |-0--------------------------0--3--3--| E |-X--------------------------X--X--X--| It's all illusion anyway.
