Take a Little Time
Harvey Andrews
Written and recorded by Harvey Andrews 1989.
From the album '25 Years on the Road' (Hypertension Records)
This song has a number of (optional) passing tones which give it colour if played
in fingerstyle. They are shown in brackets to represent the actual note to be played as follows:
(B) = 4th string 2nd fret
(F#) = 6th string 2nd fret
(G) = 6th string 3rd fret
'walkup up' at the end of two of the verses means play the notes g a and b (on the
6th and 5th strings) before playing the C chord on the next part.
The song is in the key of G as originally recorded but if this is too high to sing
along with it will transpose quite nicely into C although you will have to play
around with the passing tones.
