Subject: TAB for Blue Rodeo's 'Is It You'
Ok, Ok...this probably isn't a hundred percent but it seems to
sound pretty decent. I only tabbed the middle break cause well...I
didn't feel like doing the rest. Anyhow bear in mind that this is my
first attempt at tab/crd'ing. I put * beside a couple of C chords and
this note looks like | | | | 1 | You can still play regular C but * adds
some colour | | 2 | | |
| 3 | | | 4
Here Goes:
C
Is it you
I wonder
F C
and still it makes me laugh
is it you
that I'm looking for
G
don't turn away so fast
C
and while you were talking
F C
wide-eyed I fell asleep
G F
hoping tomorrow would be
C
as sweet
C
Is it you
who whispered
F C
into my hazy soul
is it you
who makes the flowers bloom
C* C G
on the tenement windowsill
C
in a hotel room
a TV glows
F C
and songs are exchanged
G F C
drunkenly chasing the ghost of eternity
E-15-8-8-13-12-8-15-17-15-12-8-7-7-8-10-12-8-15-17-13-12-12/8-15-13-12-13--

G
There's a drunk on the sidewalk
F C
trying to look unconcerned
G
and the dead eyed motel blondes
F G
wait in line for their turn
C
Is it you
who laughs
F C
when all the other dogs snarl
is it you
G
just because you listened for a while
C
and with this buzz of electricity
F C
still ringing in my ears
G
I wonder
F C
is it you
G
I wonder
F C
is it you
Well that's it. You can fill in the rest. By the way, I didn't
do any timing tabbing so listen to the song to get it right...you may
want to forget it all together since it is played on one of those table
guitars...whatever they're called.
I'll be working on some more so email me at safranc@server.uwindsor.ca if
you have any requests.
Ps Happy studying!
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 BLUE RODEO 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.
