Mark Knopfler - Imagine (Acoustic) guitar tab
Song Title : Imagine (Acoustic)
Album : Secret Policeman's Third Ball
Artist : Mark Knopfler & Chet Atkins
Tabber : Straits
This song is actualy performed as a duet by Mark knopfler and Chet atkins,
so there should be two guitars playing different things, someone else has
already tabbed both parts but after trying to learn his version i found that
his tab for the lead guitar (Mark Knopfler) wasn't very gd, so i have made my
own tab for Knopflers part, I think this sounds much more like the real thing,
i hope you agree.
Also, since i cannot play 2 guitars at the same time, i have mixed in a bit of
what the 2nd guitar(Chet Atkins) plays, to make it sound a bit fuller and more
rythmic.
GD luck! hope you enjoy learning it!
Tuning : D A D G B E (DROP D TUNING!!!!!)
