Forget The Swan Solo Tab

[malkmus]

I figured it’s about time this song had the solo tabbed out.

I know it won’t be exactly right, but I think it’s good enough, especially since I couldn’t find it tabbed elsewhere.

To try and make it easier to follow I have added the time and fairly often I have used a spacing of — just to break it up a bit into smaller sections.

Also if you listen to the song, you’ll hear that the sections with lower notes are less distinct and are harder to hear but what I have tabbed for them sounds good enough I think. Also, at the end it’s too hard to hear, so just play anything that sounds similar to the previous sections with the lower notes until the end.

They fly at dawn…

I made a change in the 4th section where before I played 10 on a, I replaced with 5 on d, which makes more sense. Fixed the time alignment in the forum too.
