Formentera Lady
King Crimson
Album: Islands

This one has a bunch of different instruments, but this is my
play-along version.

Intro is done on cello, I believe. Here are the notes
on guitar an octave higher. These are also the notes
for the vocal line of the verses.

(Second verse sounds the same)


Then the bass comes in pulsing endless low A notes 5-x-x-x-x-x.


Chorus (sing along an octave lower):
