PARIS - Rodrigo Y Gabriela
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Adrian Andronic
E-mail: adrianandronic92@gmail.com
Tuning: Standard
This is a great song by Rod and Gab! It's hard though, so it'll probably take quite some
practice to get this down. The tab is long but organized in sections with song times so
hopefully you don't get lost.
You might find this harder/awkward to play on a full body classical guitar that doesn't
allow easy access to the higher frets. In my opinion, everything is doable with some
awkward spots, except for one small bit which I've noted in the tab and provided an
alternative.
In the beginning part of the intro, the two guitars play the same thing, with one slight
variation.*
At 0:10, they split up and play different parts. I call the 2 guitars left and right
guitars (L.G., R.G.)
because if wearing headphones or using speakers, one is heard on the left, and the other
on the right.

* R.G. doesn't play the second (7h8p7) at the end of this line, just play fret 7.

Phew! That's it! Enjoy this great song. Comments/suggestions welcome.
** In this line, the 14-16-14 will be practically impossible to play up to speed
if you aren't using a guitar with a cutaway. Instead, you can play this:
