The aim of this version was not historical accuracy. The aim was to create a great solo unplugged "coffee-house" version with no page turns, though it could still be really useful for any situation. The melody is left intact, some liberties with the harmonies were taken when there is singing. I'm very proud and happy with how it turned out, sometimes you get lucky and the sections fall perfectly into place (which is suprising since there are some odd 3 measure phrases in here).
Features:
1. Beginner friendly. The chords are so accurate to what the sheet music is doing, that you don't even really need to read sheet music to play this!
2. Harmonies that take difficulty, style, voice leading, and melody into consideration
3. Condensed lead sheet version that fits on 2 pages to avoid a page turn; yet it is packed with details and naunces.
4. Beautifully engraved sections that visually make sense on the page.
Tips:
1. Measures 8-16 I named that chords as if both guitars were taken into consideration. I'm guilty of sometimes saying, "Oh it's just a rock song with power chords", but then you look into the details, and the chords are actually quite jazzy.
2. Maybe "She sang" needs a fermata?
3. If a song is in B minor and never changes key, fret 1 will never happens! Be in position 2 for this song! That's why I didn't put fingerings in, they would have been as helpful as confusing.
4. Maybe it's a given, but I recommend forcing melody notes on to the chord in one way or another. Sometimes I go on spurts of notating many complex chords to account for the melody, other times I just show one chord per measure but kind of assume that you'll make the guitar work more fancy with the melody notes. Maybe this is overthinking the arrangement, but there is great voicings I'm doing that I want to get across, but sometimes I won't do it because the score will get too busy looking. Just food for thought, depends on your agenda I suppose.
