Tab for guitar transcribed by Ben Wilkinson

This part is really played on a rhodes but I couldn't help wanting to
work
out these gorgeous chords and chord changes to play on guitar :oD
Hook up a phaser pedal with mellow settings to melt your brain.
I haven't tabbed any strumming patterns, just go with the flow.
(Note the alternate tuning, I had to play around with this for a bit,
but this seems like the easiest way to play it, see what works for u
tho).
 

KEY:    h = hammer on
 p = pull off
        X = mute (with left hand/finger)
  eg -11- = fret eleven (not fret one then one again - no patronisation
intended!) :oD
 

MAIN PATTERN:
 
C  ------------------0-------0-------2-------2-------4-------4h5p4---
A  ------------------0-------0-------1-------1-------3-------3-------
G  --3-------3-------0-------0-------0-------0-------2-------2-------
D  --5-------5-------3-------3-------1-------1-------0-------0-------
A  --5-------5-------3-------3-------x-------x-------0-------0-------
D  --5-------5-------3-------3-------1-------1-------0-------0-------
     1   -   2   -   3   -   4   -   1   -   2   -   3   -   4   -
 
This repeats over a lot, sometimes resting on the first chord for a while
(on top of the samples etc.)
 

OTHER PATTERN:
 
Play something like this a few times over the cello line when it comes
in..
 
C  ------------------------------------------------------------------
A  ------------------------------------------------------------------
G  --2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------
D  --0-------0-------0-------0-------0-------0-------0-------0-------
A  --3-------3-------0-------0-------2-------2-------3-------3-------
D  --3-------3-------0-------0-------2-------2-------3-------3-------
     1   -   2   -   3   -   4   -   1   -   2   -   3   -   4   -
 
Then back to the main pattern..
 

That's about it!
There are some nice guitar licks towards the end using the
natural Gminor scale, notes include:
G A Bb C D Eb F (plus maybe Db and E now and again depending on the
chord...)
