Disco Days
I decided to tab this piece more for fun than anything else. Although this song was written on piano, and appears on the album with only piano and vocals, I have taken this piece and reworked it for guitar, it is pretty basic at parts, since it is far more difficult to take piano and transfer it to guitar than vice versa, but it is really interesting. This tab can also double as piano tab if you were to sit and transfer it back to piano. So without further ado, the tab to Disco Days!
Since I tabbed this using barre-style chords, I don't know what some of the chords are (one day I will invest in a chord encyclopedia, I promise!) so I have named them strangely, so please bear with me...I'm a pianist way more than a guitarist. One last thing... / is my symbol for slide and ^ for hard pick.
