Tabbed by Ccharles on Nov 3, 2005

This is a unique conversion of Jake Shimabukuro?s ?While My Ukulele Gently Weeps?, which is HIS interpretation of ?While My Guitar Gently Weeps? by the Beatles. The original piece is a Ukulele, so the low E and A strings need to be muted. THIS IS NECESSARY FOR THE SONG! I use tape and tissue paper to mute them. Any questions email me ccharles@spambob.net.

To view the orignal video with sound, simply google ?while my ukulele gently weeps?, although if you?re here, you?ve probably already seen the video.

This version is several keys below Jake?s version because it is for guitar.

If the tab doesn?t line up, copy and paste it, make sure the font is COURIER.

Tuning = standard
h = hammer
p = pull off
s = slide
? = repeat this strum
m = mute
