The Seatbelts – The Real Folk Blues tab
Chords:
Title - The Real Folk Blues Composer - Yoko Kanno Performed by - Seatbelts feat. Mai Yamane Album - Cowboy Bebop OST This is the full version of the end theme from Cowboy Bebop. I found the Cowboy Bebop OST Band score, but that didn't provide tabs or chord boxes - all electric guitar parts were written in standard notation, and all acoustic guitar parts written with chord names and slash notation. So I had to figure out an easy way of playing the acoustic guitar chords. Here's what I came up with, as well as the lyrics and approx. where the chords go in relation to them. |E A D G B e| |-----------| F#m7 |2 4 2 2 2 2| A(add9) |x 0 2 2 2 0| or |x 0 2 2 0 0| D#m7(b5)|x x 1 2 2 2| Dmaj7 |x x 0 2 2 2| B7 |x 2 4 2 4 2| E |0 2 2 1 0 0| Bm |x 2 4 4 3 2| F#m9/C# |x 4 2 2 2 4| C#7sus4 |x 4 6 4 7 4| C#7 |x 4 6 4 6 4| F#m |2 4 4 2 2 2| F#m7/E |0 4 4 2 2 2| B7/D# |x x 1 2 0 2| C#7/F |x x 3 4 2 4| Aadd9/C#|x 4 2 2 0 0| B7(9)/F#|x 2 4 2 2 2| One of the trickiest fingerings is the B7/D# - C#7/F. I play it using this fingering: B7/D# C#7/F ______ ______ ||2||| |||||| |||3|4 slide ||||1| |||||| up to: ||2||| |||||| |||3|4 With the B7(9)/F#, you could probably just play a B7/F# and fill in the (9) with other parts if you like. -Intro.
