Here is the tab to "Stayin' Alive." The song is in the key of A flat,
but all the Ds are played as natural instead of flattened. I have put
the chords under the tab charts instead of over the lyrics. The chord
changes appear to be few and far between; that is just because of the
fast 4/4 tempo.
By the way, could someone please, please, please post the tab to "Don't
Stand So Close to Me" by the Police?
Exceed your disk quo,
Proceed to disco. :)

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 BEE GEES 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.
