--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sail Away - Randy Newman --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard Randy Newman Sail Away (1972) (Newman) From: "Sail Away" Hardly a guitar song, but it works, I think. It's difficult to reproduce the intro because of all the suspended notes. I left them out and just put the straight chords here. I'm not sure about the "A/E" chord, however. It seems to work, but I'd be thankful for suggestions!
