Tabbed by Jamie Phillips (jamiephillips22@hotmail.com) Artist: Bert Jansch Track title: Moonshine Album: Moonshine Tuning: EADGBE This is one of my favourite Bert Jansch songs. On the recording it has a beautiful arrangement added by Tony Visconti with wind instruments and cello, but it works just as well with just vocals and guitar. I've tabbed a typical verse and the instrumental break in the middle, but you will find small varaitions from verse to verse. As for fingering, there are many alternatives possible if you don't like the way I've fingered it - I tried to work out how Bert played it the best I could though. As ever, I may well be wrong in places! Great tune. Enjoy :o) Rhythm 3/4 (but watch for bars of 2/4 and 4/4) Intro: Beat:* * * * * * * * * E||---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| B||---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| G||--------0-----2p0----|--------0------------|--------3-----2p0----| D||-----0------------3--|------0-----------0--|-----0------------3--| A||---------------------|--------------1h3----|---------------------| E||--3--------3--1------|--3--------3---------|--3--------0--1------| * * * * * * * * * E---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| B---------------------|--------4------------|--------4------------| G--------0------------|--------------0---0--|--------5--0------0--| D------0-----------0--|------5---------3----|------5-------1h3----| A--------------1h3----|-/3--------3---------|--6------------------| E--3--------3---------|---------------------|---------------------| Verse: * * * * * * * * * E---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| B---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| G--------0-----2p0----|--------0------------|--------3-----2p0----| D------0-----------3--|------0-----------0--|-----0-----0------3--| A---------------------|--------------1h3----|---------------------| E--3--------3--1------|--3--------3---------|--3-----------1------| * * * * * * * * * E---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| B---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| G--------0------------|--------3-----2p0----|--------0------------| D------0-----------0--|-----0------------3--|------0-----------0--| A--------------1h3----|---------------------|--------------1h3----| E--3--------3---------|--3--------0--1------|--3--------3---------| * * * * * * * * * E---------------------|-----------------------|--------------------| B--------1------------|--------4--------------|--------3-----------| G------2--------------|------3-------0h2p0----|------0-------------| D------------------1--|-/5--------5--------3--|--------------0-h3--| A--------------1h3----|-----------------------|--1--------1--------| E--1--------1---------|-----------------------|--------------------| * * * * * * * * * E-------------------|--------------------|--------2-----0-----| B--------3----------|--------1-----------|-----------3-----3--| G------0------------|------0-------3--0--|------2-------------| D-------------------|--1--------1--------|--4-----------------| A--1--------1----1--|--------------------|--------------------| E-------------------|--------------------|--------------------| * * * * * * * * * * * E--------3-----------|--------3-----------|--------------|--------------------| B--------------3-----|--------------3-----|--6-----------|--------4--3--1-----| G------3----3-----3--|------3----3-----3--|------0-------|------0----------0--| D--0-----------------|--0-----------------|--7-----------|-----------0--1-----| A--------------------|--------------------|--------5--3--|--3-----------------| E--------------------|--------------------|--------------|--------------------| * * * * * * * * * E---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| B---------------------|---------------------|--------4------------| G--------3-----2p0----|--------0------------|--------------0---0--| D------0-----------3--|------0-----------0--|------5---------3----| A---------------------|--------------1h3----|-/3--------3---------| E--3--------3--1------|--3--------3---------|---------------------| * * * * * * * * * E---------------------|---------------------|---------------------| B--------4------------|---------------------|---------------------| G--------5--0------0--|--------0-----2p0----|--------0------------| D------5-------1h3----|------0-----------3--|------0-----------0--| A--6------------------|---------------------|--------------1h3----| E---------------------|--3--------3--1------|--3--------3---------| Break: * * * * * * * * * E--------3--5------1---------|------1----------|---------------------| B------3------6-5------------|--3p1---3p1------|---------------------| G--0-------------------------|----2-------2----|--------0-----2p0----| D---------------3------------|--------------3--|------5-----------3--| A---------------------5p3-5--|-----------------|---------------------| E----------------------------|--1--------------|-/3--------3--1------| * * * E---------------------|----|| B---------------------|----|| G--------0------------|----|| D------0-----------0--|----|| A--------------1h3----|----|| E--3--------3---------|----|| TAB guide: h = hammer on, p = pull off / = slide into note from below
