Subject: TAB: Laguna Sunrise (Bl. Sabbath)
LAGUNA SUNRISE (Black Sabbath)
-- comp. Black Sabbath [Tony Iommi!?], 1972 (from _Vol._4_)
-- transcribed/tabbed for two guitars: tcg, '81, '89, '94
-- 4/4 // keys: D, F/Dm, C // Andante (pretty slow)
[may wanna throw out an "A" or two--unless you got a string
orchestra!--like Sabbath--to keep "building" interest....]
-- chords & notes easy enough, but timing "hellacious," so had
to resort to the dreaded w-h-q-e-s-t shorthand:
w whole note; h half; q quarter; e eighth; s sixteenth
q. dotted quarter (etc.); [q] quarter rest (etc.)
q-q tied quarters (also, another aid to duration)
q3 q3 q3 quarter triplets (etc.)

FINAL NOTE: This is as close to the recording as I could get ten years or
so ago--but I recall that, when playing it with a guitar buddy, the
Asus4 & G5 chords seemed to clash a bit with the "lead" melody, since the
pitch ranges are so damn close. So I substituted the following voicings
at one point, and it worked out pretty well:
