MIDSUMMERS NIGHT DREAM
SONG: MIDSUMMERS NIGHT DREAM
ARTIST: TRIUMPH
ALBUM: THUNDER 7
TABBED BY: Michael Reilly (mikster_01@yahoo.com)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This is how I have been playing this song as long as I can remember.
It may not be 100% correct, but it will raise some eyebrows when you
play it. I fiddled with it for months by ear until I figured it out.
I am just now putting it to TAB.(15 years later)
This should be played on a 12 string, but is good on a 6 string with
a lot less stress to the hand. For Acoustic Electric add some chorus
in and it really sounds great.
There are two runs to this it should be played as such:
Intro played 2 times
Intro Riff
Main 1
Main 2
Main 3
Main 1 (replace part)
Main 2 (replace part)
Main 3
Ending
Tuning is Low E to D (tune down the E to a D)
!7! = bell or harmonic notes
6\4 = slide down
