SLEEPING CHILD
By: Michael Learns To Rock
(Music & words: Jascha Richter)
PLEASE NOTE: This is the first time ever I have tabbed a song
so if it sounds out... I'm sorry! 8) I'm only 16.
Also... I didn't take into account the timing for the tabs.
You will have to listen to the song to get the timing correct.
h-hammer on
p-pull off

Tabbed by Daniel Lu.
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 MICHAEL LEARNS TO ROCK 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.
