Well, I posted a request for Hold Your Head Up, by Argent. It's not at
Nevada, and it's a song that always eluded me...I just couldn't hear it
right. But nobody responded, and I got determined, and figured it out,
finally, note for note, very exactly. So I tabbed it out. I don't know
much about tab, so all I did was put the finger positions in. No slides
or sustains or whatever. If that's acceptable, I'll start tabbing the
hell out of stuff. I've noticed the quality of tab here varies wildly.
A few I've seen were just plain waaaaaay wrong. But at least people are
trying. So I guess my question is ... is this adequate tab? For example...

This is the first thing I've ever tabbed out, so it's very primitive,
notationwise. As for accuracy, I'm pretty confident in it, so this is
at least a good starting point.
(SECTION ONE) Intro, also played during each verse.

+ LYRICS +
And if it's bad - don't let them get you down - You can take it.
And if it hurts - don't let them see you cry - You can make it
Hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh
Hold your head high
Hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh
Hold your head high
And if they stare - Just let them burn their eyes on you moving
And if they shout - Don't let it change a thing that you're doing
Hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh
Hold your head high
Hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh, hold your head up, oh
Hold your head high
(Keyboard solo)
Hold your head up - (repeats several times)
And if they stare - just let them burn their eyes on you moving
And if they shout - don't let it change a thing that you're doing
(Chorus)
(Fade out)
