ROLLING STONES - "wild horses" Tablature

Official ROLLING STONES Tablature & Sheet Music »


From: cscsj@lux.latrobe.edu.au ( Junacko)

The original version of this is 3 guitars.



Acoustic 1 ("Nashville tuning"- low 3 strings an octave up)

this is the one which starts the song off, there are no bass

strings which gives it that high sound. After the intro it

mainly plays harmonics



Acoustic 2 (Open G- D G D G B D)

this is the main acoustic throughout the song. If I get some

requests I will put this part down.



Electric 3 (Standard tuning)

this is Mick Taylor's classic backing and superb solo. If I get

_lots_ of requests I might summon the energy to tab the solo, if

I get hundreds I might even tab the whole part.



For now, I will just do CRD. Despite having 3 guitars on the original

recording, this one sounds surprisingly full with just 1 acoustic

(standard tuning) and voice.

Intro:

Chorus:

Here are the chords:

Gi 320003 Am7 575555 Bm 799777
Gii 355433 Cii 875558 F 133211
C6 x35555 Am9 575587 Ci x32010

Giii 7 10 9 7 8 7

In the third verse, you can replace the Am7 with an Am9. (Although
now that I listen to it, I think the ninth is actually coming from
the lead guitar. But it still sounds nice to use Am9 for a little
variety, especially with only one guitar)

I would appreciate any suggestions or corrections.

I've fooled with the song some. Not real sure about the exact
placement of these chords. Trust your ear.

offer some corrections. Thanks.

Wild Horses

by The Rolling Stones
transcription by: Ken Friedson and Ed Finegold

Intro:
There are two guitar parts at the intro.
The rhythm is the same as the verse,
the lead is built off of the Bm pentatonic, the notes are:

(fret/string)
10/1,8/1,7/1,5/1

Listen to it, it'll take about two seconds to figure it out.

Verse 1:

Bm G Bm G
I heard living ...

Am C D G D C
the pains you wanted...

note: the D and the last C are transitional chords, a quick
down-up-down-up and then change to the next chord

Bm G Bm G
Graceless lady, ...

Am C D G D
You know I can't let ...

Chorus:

Am C D G F C D
Wild Horses, ...

Am C D G F C
Wild Horses, ...

(again those D chords are transitional)


Verse 2:

Bm G Bm G
I watched you ...

Am C D G D C
Now you've decided, ...

Bm G Bm G
Those sweeping exits, ...

Am C D G D
could make me be bitter...


Chorus


Verse 3:

Bm G Bm G
I know I dreamed ...

Am C D G D C
I have my freedom, but ...

Bm G Bm G
Faith has been broke....

Am C D G D
Let's do some ...


Chorus
last line sung as:
Wild horses, I'm gonna ride them some day

Either fade it out or end with a: D(transitional) G


Note: A quick listen to the album will show you what I mean
about those transitional chords. Also, I did my best to
show where the changes fall, but as you play it you'll
get the nuances. Some of the changes just hang a bit longer
than others.

Glad I could give some back to the family.

This is a new submission.


WILD HORSES written by the rolling stones
Notated as played by the Sundays from the album
"Blind"


Tablature & Transcription by Brandon Milner (bmilner@netcom.com)


The intro is:
320033 (G major) X32033 (Cadd2) 320033 X32033

VERSE:
224432 (B min) 320033 (G) 224432 (Bmin) 320033 (G)

X02210 (A min) X32010 (C maj) 320033 (G) X00232 (Dmaj)

{X00233 X00232 X00232 X00230 } played quick (d suspension)


CHORUS:
Wi- ild ....
X02210 (a min) X32010 (C) 320033 (G)

drag me a...
1330XX (F) X32010 (C)

BRIDGE:

There are like 3 acoustic tracks plus more electric here so you can play
just about any voicing of these chords and the notes are probably in there
somewhere.

Fmaj9 (X03010) Cmaj9 (X3001) X 4

the turnaround back into verse is (X320XX) (X540XX)

NOW for the 2nd guitar part during the CHORUS:

I'm going to butcher the time but listen carefully to the song and
you will get it. note the interesting syncopation though (tricky)

Play on high 2 strings:
Wild...
12-12-12-12| eighth note each 10-10-10-10 1 sixteenth note each
10-10-10-10| 12-12-12-12

Horses...
12--10-10-10-10 then 10-10-10-10 fast, 1 sixteenth each
10--12-12-12-12 12-12-12-12



Couldn't......AWAY
8---7-8---10--7-8---10--7--3--3--3--3-
10--8-10--12--8-10--12--8--5--5--5--5-
0--0--0--0--0- (G string played open)

Good luck with my strange rhythmic notating.
