Tears Tab by Reinhart Django #----------------------------------PLEASE NOTE---------------------------------# #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song. You may only use this file for private study, scholarship, or research. # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------## From: jon@zeus.med.utah.edu (Jonathan Byrd) TEARS by Django Reinhardt/Stephane Grappelli tablature by Jonathan Byrd Note: This song was originally written in the key of Cm, but I have transposed it to Am. I have heard at least three different arrangements of this tune by Django, and one by Chet Atkins, and I have borrowed bits from all of them, in addition to putting in some of my own stuff. Anyway, I hope you like it. 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e ---------------------3-1-----1-0----------------------3-1-----1-0-| B -----1-------1-------3-----0----------1-------1-------3-------0---| G -----2-------2----2-------1-----------2-------2----2-------1------| D ---2---2---2---2--------------------2---2---2---2-----------------| A -0-------3-------2----------------0-------3-------2---------------| E -------------------------4--------------------------------4-------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e ------------------------------------------------------------------| B -5-5-5-5-6---6---3-3---3---------3-3-3-3-5---5---1-1---1----------| G -3-3-3-3-3---3---5-5---5---------4-4-4-4-4---4---2-2---2----------| D -5-5-5-5-5---5---3-3---3---------3-3-3-3-3---3---2-2---2----------| A -4----4----4-----5---5--------------------------------------------| E -------------------------5-------4----4--4-------3---3------------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e -----------------------------8-7-----8-7-----4-5---------12-12----| B -1-1-1-1-3---3---0-0---0-----8-7-----8-7-----4-5-----5-5----------| G -2-2-2-2-2---2---2-2---2-----8-7-----8-7-----4-5-----4-4-11-11----| D -1-1-1-1-1---1---0-0---0-----7-6-----7-6-----3-4------------------| A -----------------------------------------------0------------------| E -2----2--2-------1---1---------0-------0--------------------------| [REPEAT] 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e ------------------------------------------------------------------| B ---------5---4-3-------------------------5---4-3-------------3----| G -6-6-5-6-4---3-2-----3-4-----5---6-6-5-6-4---3-2-------------1----| D -7-7-6-7-6---5-4-----5-6-----6---7-7-6-7-6---5-4-------------2----| A -0-------4---3-2-----4-5-----5---0-------4---3-2-----------2------| E -------------------------0-------------------------------0--------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e -9-7-5-----------5-----------------------9---------------8--------| B -------9-7---5---7---7-------7---7-7---7---7-----6-6---6---7------| G -9-7-6---6---6---6---6-------6---8---10------8---7---9-------6----| D ---------5---5---7---7-------7---7---------------6----------------| A -0-------0---0---5---------------9---------------8----------------| E -------------------------5-------7---------------6----------------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e ---------5---5---4-----------2-----------5---5---4----------------| B ---------5---4---3-----------0-----------5---4---3----------------| G -6-6-5-6-4---3---2-----------1---6-6-5-6-4---3---2-----------7----| D -7-7-6-7-6---5---4---------------7-7-6-7-6---5---4-----------6----| A -0-------4---3---2---------2-----0-------4---3---2---------7------| E -------------------------0-------------------------------0--------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e -9-7-5-----------5---------------1-1---1-0---0---------------------| B -------8-7---5---7---7-------7---1---3---0---0---1-----------------| G -9-7-6---6---6---6---6-------6---2-------1---1---2-----------------| D ---------5---5---7---7-------7---3-------2-------2-----------------| A -0-------0---0---5---------------3-------2-------0---3---2---------| E -------------------------5---------------0-------------------4-----| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e ------------------------------------------------------3-1-----1-0-| B -----1-------1---3--------------------1-------1-------3-------0---| G -----2-------2---3--------------------2-------2----2-------1------| D ---2---2---2---2-3------------------2---2---2---2-----------------| A -0-------3-------1----------------0-------3-------2---------------| E -----------------------------4----------------------------4-------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e ------------------------------------------------------------------| B -5-5-5-5-6---6---3-3---3---------3-3-3-3-5---5---1-1---1----------| G -3-3-3-3-3---3---5-5---5---------4-4-4-4-4---4---2-2---2----------| D -5-5-5-5-5---5---3-3---3---------3-3-3-3-3---3---2-2---2----------| A -4----4----4-----5------------------------------------------------| E ---------------------5-----------4----4--4-------3---3------------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 e -----------------------------8-7-----8-7-----4-5---------12-12----| B -1-1-1-1-3---3---0-0---0-----8-7-----8-7-----4-5-----5-5----------| G -2-2-2-2-2---2---2-2---2-----8-7-----8-7-----4-5-----4-4-11-11----| D -1-1-1-1-1---1---0-0---0-----7-6-----7-6-----3-4------------------| A -----------------------------------------------0------------------| E -2----2--2-------1---1---------0-------0--------------------------| (rit.) e -8-7-----8-7-----5-5------------------| B -8-7-------5-------5------------------| G -8-7-------7-------5------------------| D -7-6-------6-------4------------------| A -------------------0------------------| E ---0-------0--------------------------| -- jonathan byrd jon@apollo.med.utah.edu
