--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mr. Blue - The Fleetwoods --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard The Fleetwoods Mr. Blue (1959) (DeWayne Blackwell) Now on: "Come Softly To Me - The Very Best of The Fleetwoods" The instrumental backing of this beautiful track is really low in the mix, so some of this is guesswork/interpretation (or simply a matter of taste). Anyway, what is here works well with the original. You may add minor 7s to the minor chords whenever you think it's fitting or include some notes from the harmonies into the guitar chords and create your own version. Feedback and suggestions for improvement are highly welcome. Enjoy! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHORDS/SPECIAL VOICINGS e-B-G-D-A-E Am6 x-5-5-4-x-5 Am x-x-5-7-7-5 B7 x-4-2-4-2-x F#m7/b5 x-1-2-2-x-2 B9/sus4 x-2-2-2-2-x Emaj7 4-4-4-2-2-0 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- *LINK (INTRO ==> VERSE 1) e|----------------| B|----------------| G|----------------| D|----------------| A|--2-0-----------| E|--------4---2---| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- INTRO (freely) [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-fleetwoods/277290.html ] [tacet] Am6 Am Our guardian star lost all his glow B7 E The day that I lost you [tacet] Am He lost all his glitter the day you said no B7 E And his silver turned to blue F#m7/b5 E F#m7/b5 B7 Like him, I am doubtful that your love is true E F#m7/b5 But if you decide to call on me B7 E [*LINK] Ask for Mr. Blue SONG E G#m A I'm Mr. Blue (wah-a-wah-ooh) B(9/sus4) E G#m A When you say you love me (Mr. Blue) B(9/sus4) E G#m(C#m?)
