Corrections to existing TABS:
1) Richard Cook's TAB (in D, capo on 2nd fret) lists the chords of the
bridge as:
[Dm]She ... any[G]where
[Dm]I ... [G]chair.[A]
which contains 2 errors. To be played in D the chords should be:
[Dm]She ... any[G]where
[Dm]I ... [Em7]chair[A7].
2) Robert Hall's TAB (in E) lists the chords of the bridge as:
[Am]She ... any[D]where

2. Chords are tabbed for their first beat only. The D chord is strummed down,

3. Holding the D chord, use your pinky for 3rd fret notes and index finger
for 1st fret notes, middle finger for 3rd fret on the A string.

This song is in E; you can play it in D with a capo, but
I don't have one, so I figured out this version. It lets
you play the rhythm and lead guitar parts at the same time:
|
| I once had a girl or shld I say she once had me
-> (c) B (c) G (c) D G G (c) D G A (c)
Accent the string listed below the word to bring out
the melody. (c) means accent the whole chord. Use your
smallest finger to hit the notes during "I once had a girl."
Chorus
[Am]She asked me to stay and she told me to sit any[D]where
[Am]I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a c[D]hair -[F#]--> verse (E riff above)
I'm not sure of the complete lyrics, they're pretty clear

This is the song Norwegian Wood, by the Beatles.
The song appeared on the Rubber Soul album, released
in 1965. Here it is:
(strum a few times)
(strum a little)(strum a little)
LYRICS: I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me.
She showed me her room. Isn't it good, Norwegian Wood?
She asked me to stay, and she told me to sit anywhere.
So I looked around, and I noticed there wasn't a chair.
I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine.
We talked until two, and then she said, it's time for bed.
She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh.
I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath.
And, when I awoke, I was alone. This bird had flown.
So, I lit a fire. Isn't it good, Norwegian Wood?
The sitar is the actual instrument used by
George Harrison to play this song. It is
the first Beatle's song where it is present.

HOW TO SUBMIT FILES TO OLGA (THE ON-LINE GUITAR ARCHIVE)
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
OLGA, the On-Line Guitar Archive, is a natural development of
the guitar.tab newsgroups. The Archive provides a library of files that
is more permanent than usenet and is easily accessible, and attempts to
prevent repetition of work already done by the community.
If you can educate others in how to play a song, type up
the chords and/or tab and/or playing tip and send it to both the
newsgroups AND the archive, and contribute to the community.
It's very simple:
Step 1: Before you submit, make sure of the following:
Final That you have included the song name, artist's name
Preparations and your own name (and if different, the transciber's name)
If you can, include other information such as the name
of the album from which the track comes, the name of the
author of the words and music, details of the publisher
and catalogue number, and notes on what effects are used
and on how to play the music.
Make sure that the file is 'all your own work'. If you
use copyrighted material, it won't (knowingly) be
archived.
You should also check the archive to ensure that you
are not duplicating material already there. If a chord
or tab file already exists for the song, take it down
and incorporate your material with it. Always credit
the original author and mention what each of you has
done. If the file is anonymous at the archive, you
should nonetheless state that you used material from
the archive, and if practicable, disclaim credit for
the portions used.
Step 2: The simplest method of submitting for all concerned is
Submitting simply to email it to [email protected] Use a subject
line of the same form as you post to news, i.e.
TAB:by
Alternatively, you can use ftp. If you don't know how,
read the FAQ file posted to the guitar.tab newsgroups by
Ryan Harding called 'The Ultimate Guide to the Tab Archives'.
Use the 'put' command during an ftp session to
ftp.nevada.edu/pub/guitar/incoming
Please follow the instructions in the file READ_BEFORE_PUTTING
N.B.: You can submit by ftp to the nevada site only.
There are incoming directories at some of the other OLGA
sites (for different purposes), but if you upload tab or
chords to those sites they won't be archived at any site.
Step 3: Files are processed and archived manually, so it can take
Checking anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 weeks to archive your file.
In practice, it never takes more than a week, so you can start
checking if your file is at OLGA 4-7 days after submission.
Note that the file filters down through the sites, and this
may also take some time
The best way to check is to read the INFO file posted to
the guitar.tab newsgroups every Monday called 'OLGA WEEKLY
INDEX'. The indexes are for the second previous week, so
if the name of your file does not appear on this list
one of the three Monday's after you submit it, contact
[email protected] and inquire politely as to its whereabouts.
You can receive the WEEKLY INDEX and other OLGA notices by
email. Write to [email protected] to have your name added.
Your file at OLGA:
Any file archived becomes the property of the archive in so far as
material extraneous to the musical content (the header and .sig) may
be removed or edited. The author's name and e-mail address will always
be retained if accompanying the file, along with any other information
the archivists deem relevant.
The archivists retain the right to modify or remove files as they see fit.
In cases of duplication of a song, the archivists may remove a
transcription of inferior quality.
Copyright of work remains with the author of that work. Posting to usenet
or to the archive implicitly gives permission for fair-use distribution.
Requests to have files removed or modified should be made to the
archivists by e-mail to [email protected].
Additions/corrections to this file welcomed.

version of the song Money, by Pink Floyd, to you. So, here it is:
From: [email protected] (Stuart Watson)
Here's the tablature for the song Money, by Pink Floyd. The song appeared
on the album The Dark Side of the Moon, released in 1973. Roger Waters
wrote and sang the song. Here it is:
(repeat this many times) (then...)
SOLOS:
(play this for a little bit) (then this) (then this)
(and then this) (and finally this)
To get the song completely right, and know what order
to play it in, I'd listen to it.

I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair.
I sat on a rug, biding my time
drinking her wine.
We talked until two, and then she said
it's time for bed.
[repeat 1st measure]
She told me she worked in the morning
and started to laugh.
I told her I didn't
and crawled off to sleep in the bath.
And, when I awoke, I was alone
this bird had flown.
So, I lit a fire, isn't it good
Norwegian wood.

notes:
1. Spacing doesn't indicate timing - I just lined the tab up with the lyrics.
2. Chords are tabbed for their first beat only. The D chord is strummed down,
up, down. Note the hammer-on at the end of each measure.
3. Holding the D chord, use your pinky for 3rd fret notes and index finger
for 1st fret notes, middle finger for 3rd fret on the A string.
4. Have an accompanist play along without a capo:

This song is in E; you can play it in D with a capo, but
I don't have one, so I figured out this version. It lets
you play the rhythm and lead guitar parts at the same time:

LYRICS: I once had a girl, or should I say, she once had me.
She showed me her room. Isn't it good, Norwegian Wood?
She asked me to stay, and she told me to sit anywhere.
So I looked around, and I noticed there wasn't a chair.
I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine.
We talked until two, and then she said, it's time for bed.
She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh.
I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath.
And, when I awoke, I was alone. This bird had flown.
So, I lit a fire. Isn't it good, Norwegian Wood?
--------------------------
The sitar is the actual instrument used by
George Harrison to play this song. It is
the first Beatle's song where it is present.

HOW TO SUBMIT FILES TO OLGA (THE ON-LINE GUITAR ARCHIVE)
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
OLGA, the On-Line Guitar Archive, is a natural development of
the guitar.tab newsgroups. The Archive provides a library of files that
is more permanent than usenet and is easily accessible, and attempts to
prevent repetition of work already done by the community.
If you can educate others in how to play a song, type up
the chords and/or tab and/or playing tip and send it to both the
newsgroups AND the archive, and contribute to the community.
It's very simple:
Step 1: Before you submit, make sure of the following:
Final That you have included the song name, artist's name
Preparations and your own name (and if different, the transciber's name)
If you can, include other information such as the name
of the album from which the track comes, the name of the
author of the words and music, details of the publisher
and catalogue number, and notes on what effects are used
and on how to play the music.
Make sure that the file is 'all your own work'. If you
use copyrighted material, it won't (knowingly) be
archived.
You should also check the archive to ensure that you
are not duplicating material already there. If a chord
or tab file already exists for the song, take it down
and incorporate your material with it. Always credit
the original author and mention what each of you has
done. If the file is anonymous at the archive, you
should nonetheless state that you used material from
the archive, and if practicable, disclaim credit for
the portions used.
Step 2: The simplest method of submitting for all concerned is
Submitting simply to email it to [email protected] Use a subject
line of the same form as you post to news, i.e.
TAB:by
Alternatively, you can use ftp. If you don't know how,
read the FAQ file posted to the guitar.tab newsgroups by
Ryan Harding called 'The Ultimate Guide to the Tab Archives'.
Use the 'put' command during an ftp session to
ftp.nevada.edu/pub/guitar/incoming
Please follow the instructions in the file READ_BEFORE_PUTTING
N.B.: You can submit by ftp to the nevada site only.
There are incoming directories at some of the other OLGA
sites (for different purposes), but if you upload tab or
chords to those sites they won't be archived at any site.
Step 3: Files are processed and archived manually, so it can take
Checking anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 weeks to archive your file.
In practice, it never takes more than a week, so you can start
checking if your file is at OLGA 4-7 days after submission.
Note that the file filters down through the sites, and this
may also take some time
The best way to check is to read the INFO file posted to
the guitar.tab newsgroups every Monday called 'OLGA WEEKLY
INDEX'. The indexes are for the second previous week, so
if the name of your file does not appear on this list
one of the three Monday's after you submit it, contact
[email protected] and inquire politely as to its whereabouts.
You can receive the WEEKLY INDEX and other OLGA notices by
email. Write to [email protected] to have your name added.
Your file at OLGA:
Any file archived becomes the property of the archive in so far as
material extraneous to the musical content (the header and .sig) may
be removed or edited. The author's name and e-mail address will always
be retained if accompanying the file, along with any other information
the archivists deem relevant.
The archivists retain the right to modify or remove files as they see fit.
In cases of duplication of a song, the archivists may remove a
transcription of inferior quality.
Copyright of work remains with the author of that work. Posting to usenet
or to the archive implicitly gives permission for fair-use distribution.
Requests to have files removed or modified should be made to the
archivists by e-mail to [email protected].
Additions/corrections to this file welcomed.

Here's the tablature for the song Money, by Pink Floyd. The song appeared
on the album The Dark Side of the Moon, released in 1973. Roger Waters

Corrections to existing TABS:
1) Richard Cook's TAB (in D, capo on 2nd fret) lists the chords of the
bridge as:
[Dm]She ... any[G]where
[Dm]I ... [G]chair.[A]
which contains 2 errors. To be played in D the chords should be:
[Dm]She ... any[G]where
[Dm]I ... [Em7]chair[A7].
2) Robert Hall's TAB (in E) lists the chords of the bridge as:
[Am]She ... any[D]where
[Am]I ... [D]chair [F#]---> verse (E riff above)
which are in the wrong key. To be played in E the chords should be:
[Em]She ... any[A]where
[Em]I ... [Fm7]chair.[B7]

We talked until two, and then she said
it's time for bed.

notes:
1. Spacing doesn't indicate timing - I just lined the tab up with the lyrics.
2. Chords are tabbed for their first beat only. The D chord is strummed down,

This song is in E; you can play it in D with a capo, but
I don't have one, so I figured out this version. It lets
you play the rhythm and lead guitar parts at the same time:
e --0---0---0---0---0---x---x---x---0---x---x---x---0----------
B --0---2---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0----------
G --1---1---1---2---1---2---2---0---1---2---2---2---1----------
D --2---2---2---2---2---4---4---4---2---0---0---0---2----------
A --2---2---2---2---2---0---0---0---2---4---4---4---2----------
E --0---2---0---2---0---x---x---x---0---x---x---x---0----------

Accent the string listed below the word to bring out
the melody. (c) means accent the whole chord. Use your
smallest finger to hit the notes during "I once had a girl."
