# From swede@email.unc.edu Sun Apr 27 11:33:48 1997 Date: Wed, 2 Apr 1997 14:24:16 -0500 (EST) From: Fred Lidskog To: guitar@olga.net Subject: TAB: Sad Song (Live By The Sea version) by Oasis >From Fred Lidskog Sad Song, written by Noel Gallagher, the bottomless fountain of amazing acoustic songs. Song can be found on the vinyl edition of "Definitely Maybe" and the Japanese "Definitely Maybe" CD, from what I've heard. Transcribed below is the version of "Sad Song" that Noel plays acoustic on the Oasis concert video "Live By The Sea." I've previously done a transcription of "Sad Song" that Noel played at some other show, but as he often plays this song a little differently, below is the version he plays in "Live By The Sea" at the Southside Cliffs Pavalion back in April of 1994, I believe. Chords used: EADGBe Am (x02210) F (x33211) Fmaj7 (x33210) D (xx0232) Dsus2 (xx0230) E (022100) Esus4 (022200) G (3x0033) C (x32010) C/B (x2x010) Tab for intro: s=slide e-----0---0-0-0-0-0-0-- ---0-0---0-0---0-0---0-0---0-3-3-0-0--------- B-----1s3-3-1-1-1-1-1-- play ---1-1---1-1---1-1---1-1---1-1-1-1-1--------- G-----0---0-0-0-0-0-0-- three ---0-0---0-0---0-0---0-0---0-0-0-0-0--------- D-----2s4-4-2-2-2-2-2-- times, ---2-2-0-0-0---x-x---x-x---2-2-2-2-2--------- A--0--0---0-0-0-0-3-3-- then: -0-----------3-3-3-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-0-0--------- E---------------------- -------------------------------------------- Verse 1 ------- Am Fmaj7 Sing a sad song, i...
