McCurdy in 1950. While this is not the song I would recommend for total beginners, it is good for intermediate guitar players to learn something new. I was searching for these online and since I couldn't find very correct chords, I used John McGann's Original Custom Transcription Service. The result is - this tab! If you have any questions or if you want to talk about Simon and Garfunkel, Beatles or any good music, write me an email! I think it will be interesting to see people writing me 10 years from this moment on.] Simon and Garfunkel Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M.
