harmonies and rhythmns and lots of his favourite interval - the 4th !
The instrument names I ve written down obviously refer to the Yellow
Shark version.
I ve tabbed the different variations of the main tune rather than try
and do the whole piece.
To save repeating myself and creating a huge long file,
I ve just tabbed out the parts in the variations that are
different from the previous versions.
Once you ve got the first two bits sussed (what I ve called
tune 1A and 1B) the rest is nearly all repeats of this
with literally just a handful of notes changed.
I ve labelled the different lines for tunes 1A and 1B and then just
out one new line and then put - repeat lines 2A to 12A.
I hope this is easy enough to follow.
The rhythmn for this is basically all 8th notes (quavers if you prefer).
Note that the first 8th notes of most bars is a rest - so a lot of
the phrases have 7 notes.
I find it sounds best when you pick all the notes individually rather
than use hammer-ons or pull-offs. If you use one finger per fret
(1st finger - 9th fret, 2nd finger - 10th fret etc) then you can play about
90% of it without changing position.

Quirky harmony bit
-------------------
Clarinet and Xylophone
Now it s basically the same tune again but played up two frets so
its in C#m instead of Bm. There is also a two part harmony going with
a few quirky notes stuck in.
Play line 1B, then lines 2A-6A all moved up 2 frets and that will be
about right. If you want to be *really* picky, there is a note missed
out from line 6A (the third note - 9th fret G string).
Tune 1C
---------
Strings and flute. Back in Bm.
This is a note-for-note copy of tune 1A except that the
first line has a few different notes.
E|
B1012101210|
G11911119|
D129119| line 1C
A|
E|
Then repeat lines 2A to 12A
Tune 2
--------
Clarinet and trombone.
A new, slower tune is introduced here.

Tune 1D
--------
Glockenspiel
This variation is made up entirely of repeats of previous bits.
First play line 1B, then lines 2A - 6A.
(But miss out the third note in line 6A)
That tricky middle section
----------------------------
It would take me a long time to tab all of this part,
but it starts off like this :
E|
B101210121012101210|
G911911|
D|
A|
E|
E99|
B1012121210101210|
G911|
D|
A|
E|
E--------------------------------9|
B10121012121210|
G9119911911|
D|
A|
E|
E9141412|
B101212141212|
G9111411119|
D----------------------------------------------------------|
A----------------------------------------------------------|
E----------------------------------------------------------|
etc etc
(N.B This whole tune is played in parallel 4ths. It s easier to
play the single notes as I ve tabbed above, but if you want a
challenge try playing the two harmony parts on the lower strings.
Move the tune down an octave and then add a harmony part a 4th below.
It would start like this :
E|
B|
G242424242246|
D242424242424224246| etc )
A242424|
E|
To get the hang of the rhythm here all I can suggest is practise
a lot ! After a lot of careful listening I was able to play along
up to this point - but it s hard to keep it going for the whole section!
It s made easier by the fact that the percussion beats out a steady
4/4 beat throughout this section to use as a reference.
The stuff that I ve left out after here is quite a large chunk.
After a while the whole ensemble plays this little tune in unison :
E9|
B12121012121012121012121012121012|
G|
D|
A|
E|
E1099|
B121012121012|
G11|
D------------------------------------------|
A------------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------------|
As before, this tune is actually played in 4ths. It s harder to play
the two parts at the proper speed, but if you want to try, here
is the 2-part version of the same tune :
E775775775775779571097577957|
B7757757757757795710975779757|
G--------------------------------------------------------6|
D-----------------------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------------------|
After a few little phrases on the brass, there is another little tune
in 4ths (played on the piano). This one is OK to play at full speed as
it uses a couple of open strings to make it easier.
E777722401414|
B7777722401212|
G6241111|
D---------------------------------2424|
A---------------------------------24|
E|
E77002240|
B77002240|
G|
D|
A|
E|
Quirky harmony bit
-------------------
Here it shifts key to C#m and you hear the trumpets play some long,
loud notes.
Play lines 1B then 2A-6A moving all notes up a whole tone (2 frets).
(Miss out 3rd note in line 6A).
Last time for Tune 1 !
------------------------
Back to Bm.
Only the last line is different here, so repeat lines
1A - 11A then play this as the last line :
E9-----------------------------------------|
B121012|
G1199|
D911|
A11--------------------------------|
E|
Optional gong crash on the last note !
That s all folks.
