Tab

This is my first tab, i tabbed it from the original sheet music using the tab rulers on this website. I think it's ok. Suggestions are always welcome.

 

On my own
 3    4     4

Pretending he's beside me
 4   -4  4    -4    6 5 -4  4

All alone
3 4 4

I walk with him till morning
4 -4 4 -4 4 -3’’ 3

Without him
3 -3’’ -3’’

I feel his arms around me
4 -3 4 -4 5 4 5

And when I lose my way I close my eyes
4  -5 5  -4 4 -5 5 -4 4 -5

And he has found me
 5 -4 4 -3’’ 3

In the rain the pavement shines like silver
3 4 4 4 -4 4 -4 6 5 -4 4

All the lights are misty in the river
3 4 4 4 -4 4 -4 4 -3’’ 3

In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
3 -3’’ -3’’ 4 -3 4 -4 5 4 5

And all I see is him and me forever and forever
4    -5   5  -4   4 -5      5     -4    4 -5 5 -4 4 -3 3



And I know it's only in my mind
3 4 4 4 -4 4 -4 5 5

That I'm talking to myself and not to him
4 -6 -6 5 5 4 4 -3’ -3’ -3 3

And although I know that he is blind
-3’ -5 -5 -5 -5 5 -5 6 -6

Still I say, there's a way for us
-6 6 -5 5 -4 -5 5 -4



I love him
-3 5 5

But when the night is over
5 -5 5 -5 -7 6 -5  5

He is gone
-3 5 5

The river's just a river
5 -5 5 -5 5 4 -3

Without him
-3 4 5

The world around me changes
5 -4 5 -5 6 5  6

The trees are bare and everywhere
5 -6 6 -5 5 -6 6 -5

The streets are full of strangers
5 -6 6 -5 5 4 -3



I love him
3 5 5

But every day I'm learning
5 -5 5 -5 -7  6 -5 5

All my life
6 6 6

I've only been pretending
6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -7 -7

Without me
-3 4 5

His world will go on turning
5 - 5 -5 6 5 -6

A world that's full of happiness
5 -6 6 -5 5 -6 6 -5

That I have never known
5 -6 6 -5 5 -7



I love him
-3 5 5

I love him
-3 5 5

I love him
-5 -5 5

But only on my own

5 -5 5 -5 6 6 

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
