Albatros by Fleetwood Mac Tabbed by Malc Brookes ([email protected]) I arranged this for solo acoustic guitar several years ago. In section B the bass switches from F# to A (which keeps the F#m feel, IMO) as it wasn't possible to keep the original melody and bass. In section C the melody is dropped a whole octave, which allows the F# bass line to be preserved and sounds better, I feel, on an acoustic than playing it above the 12th fret.

X-Mailer: FIMail V0.9d X-User: Alpha Test Version Of FI-Mail, DisWin 1.5C:\WINSOCK\WINDIS Lines: 164 Status: O I'm sorry, I checked it and checked it, thought it was okay and sent it. But I have since discovered a tiny error, so here's the corrected version. Albatros by Fleetwood Mac Tabbed by Malc Brookes ([email protected]) I arranged this for solo acoustic guitar several years ago. In section B the bass switches from F# to A (which is in the chord of F#m) as it wasn't possible to keep the original melody and bass. In section C the melody is dropped a whole octave, which allows the F# bass line to be preserved and sounds better, I feel, on an acoustic than playing it above the 12th fret.
