to meet the demands of the throngs of Natalie guitarists on the
net... carnival... congas required (no, it's *not* a drum machine!),
twirling singer highly recommended, back up singer highly optional

Carnival by Natalie Merchant from the album "Tigerlily" 1995

KEY to TABLATURE:
/   slide up                           \   slide down
^   hammer on or pull off              ~   vibrato
/B  bend up a whole or half note       R   release
/BB bend up more than a whole note
[E] chord (strum patterns NOT tabbed)


set fx on overdrive; listen for timing and subtle pull-offs-
if you play all notes with equal emphasis, it'll sound wrong!
juice the first slide up to B and bend it for all its worth
