The Unforgiven

Chords
pin

# I won't explain the whole song 'cause i didn't tab it yet. 
# The whole song is based on the chords Am, C, G, Em, A and E (and some D chords in the verses). 
# You'll find a complete chord list also on this site. 
# First of all there's just a fingerpicking version of the intro:

# A---2-----2-----2-----2-----3-----3-----3-----3----0-
# E-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0--0-
# C--------------------------------------------------0-
# G-2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2------2-

# repeat these arpeggios a few times, then play:

# A-0-2-3--3-2-0--0-2-3-3-0--
# E--------------------------
# C--------------------------
# G--------------------------

# after that there's a tricky fingerpicking version of the sweet melody at the beginning/mainriff 
# of the song. It's an ukulele interpretation I did. Not exactly the same as played in the song, 
# but it sounds pretty good, when you know how to play it:

#   Am  C       _3_ G      Em A        
# A-0-2-3---3---232-------2---0-------
# E-------0---0-----3---3---3---------
# C-----0---0---------2---2-4---------
# G-2-2-----------------------2-------
               
#   Am  C       _3_ G       E       A
# A-0-2-3---7---575-2-----2-----2---0-
# E-------0---0-------3-----0-----0---
# C-----0---0-----------2-----4-4-----
# G-2-2-------------0-----0-1-------2-

# since tabs don't show timing and note lengths, you might have to figure it out by yourself. 
# But I'm sure you'll recognize the timing and melody if you'll start playing it very slowly, 
# note by note when you know the song.
# I recommend hammering on/pull off for the triplets an the A string (232 and 575)

# Please do not rate this tab, if you don't know the song! You won't be able to play it without the rhythm!
# Have fun and enjoy!
