"The Bricklayer's Beautiful Daughter", by William Ackerman
Transcription by Jay Armstrong
Tuning (low to high) : Eb Ab Db Gb B E, then capo on 5th fret
I'm not sure what the convention is for tabbing with a capo,
but I am treating the capo as if it were the nut, so the fret
numbers are relative. Is that how it's usually done? I'm pretty sure
I've seen it both ways, but this way seems more natural to me.
Let me know what you think :-)

Then play some of the parts again .... you know how the song goes ;)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ACKERMAN WILL tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
