PINK FLOYD - "Arnold Layne" Tablature
Official PINK FLOYD Tablature & Sheet Music »
Arnold Layne
Pink Floyd
From the Album: Relics (1971)
Tuning: Standard tuned slightly flat.
This is played with a pick. The sections that are marked asteriks are
slightly palm-muted. Also note that the lyrics are just used as a reminder
spot, and they do not follow the tablature rhythm.

Tabbed by high_voltage76@hotmail.com
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 PINK FLOYD 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.
