LAGUNA SUNRISE (Black Sabbath)

==============

-- comp. Black Sabbath [Tony Iommi!?], 1972 (from _Vol._4_)

-- transcribed/tabbed for two guitars: tcg, '81, '89, '94

-- 4/4 // keys: D, F/Dm, C // Andante (pretty slow)

-- Sequence: A1-A2-B-A1-A1-A3 (note repeat signs & textual notes)

[may wanna throw out an "A" or two--unless you got a string

orchestra!--like Sabbath--to keep "building" interest....]

-- chords & notes easy enough, but timing "hellacious," so had

to resort to the dreaded w-h-q-e-s-t shorthand:

w = whole note; h = half; q = quarter; e = eighth; s = sixteenth

q. = dotted quarter (etc.); [q] = quarter rest (etc.)

q-q = tied quarters (also, ===== another aid to duration)

q3 q3 q3 = quarter triplets (etc.)

A::

FINAL NOTE: This is as close to the recording as I could get ten years or

so ago--but I recall that, when playing it with a guitar buddy, the

Asus4 & G5 chords seemed to clash a bit with the "lead" melody, since the

pitch ranges are so damn close. So I substituted the following voicings

at one point, and it worked out pretty well:

G5 Asus2
