Here are a couple of Cat Stevens Tunes I learned from the recordings last summer.
The Wind
By Cat Stevens
Presented to you by Paul D. Black
This is a short, catchy little ditty. It is off of the Teaser and the Firecat album.
Below is the tab to the verse. There is some fingerpicking involved in that part of the song.
For the chorus part, I just gave the chords since they are in the standard position and you'll really have to hear the recording to get the strum pattern (that what gives it it's flavor).
This is just approximate. You'll have to listen to the record to get the exact chordal pattern. When you hear it you'll see (hear) what I mean.
Many thanks to Paul Black for posting the TABs for the Steven's songs. I have a slightly different take on the chorus of the Wind, but Paul's version is probably more accurate. It's been --mmm- 20 years since I actually listened to the Wind... Anyway, here's the way I play the chorus (starting from G):
AGADE- I sat upon the setting sun
GE- GAsus4A7G I never, never, never ne ver
AGADE- I never wanted water once
GE- AGD I never, ne ver never
