Holding Out For A Hero- Ella Mae Brown Tuning: C#, G#, C#, F#, A#, D# Drop D and Half-Step down Tabbed By: Danny North Email: dnorth2@hotmail.com This is my first tab! But as far as I can hear, this is correct! THIS is the tuning. No capo fret 5, nor 1 nor WHATEVER ELSE. There’s a clear C# base note throughout the song! Yes, it’s a little annoying tuning, but this is how you do the real deal. In the Intro, Guitar 1 would be playing the “Intro Riff” and Guitar 2 plays the chords- Also, when Guitar 2 starts playing on the “G”s in the intro, it strums it once then hits the harmonics on the base strings on fret 5 then continues strumming. Listen to the song well to get what I mean. (For a lack of knowledge of these Chord names, I simplified them to their base note representation) Also, there's a heavy emphasis on the base notes of each chord, so if you want to even ignore the last ones it'll still sound fine) G A D D# Bm A* --x-- --0-- --2-- --x-- --2-- --x-- --x-- --0-- --3-- --x-- --3-- --x-- --4-- --2-- --2-- --x-- --4-- --x-- --5-- --2-- --0-- --2-- --4-- --7-- --x-- --0-- --0-- --2-- --2-- --7-- --5-- --x-- --0-- --2-- --x-- --7-- [Intro] G A G D |---------------|--------------------|---------------|-------------------| |---3-2---------|---3-2--------------|---3-2---------|--5-3--------------| |--2-----2/4----|--2-----4/6-----4-6-|--2-----2/4----|--------2------2---| |---------------|--------------------|---------------|-------------4-----| |---------------|--------------------|---------------|-------------------| |---------------|--------------------|---------------|-------------------| [Verse] G D Where have all the good men gone And where are all the gods?
