Derek Hasted writes "This is a very accessible arrangement of an astonishingly lovely chart hit by Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes, originally taken from the movie “An Officer And A Gentleman”.
The music is set in the same keys as the original - D modulating to Eb. Most guitarists panic when they say that many flats, but if you finger the D section with no open strings, you’ll simply need to slide up one fret and the guitar does the work for you! Guitar 4 is tuned to 6=D to give extra depth to the ensemble.
Guitar 1 is based on Jennifer’s line, and Guitar 2 on Joe’s. There are many videos of their many performances on YouTube and no two are the same, but this is an amalgam of the two versions that I enjoyed the most. Be aware that because the tune is sometimes in quite a low register, it’s important that the accompanying lines aren’t too loud or they will mask the melody. There are dynamics on the score that should help you get a balanced sound.
I hope you enjoy playing this piece!
