Ashes Are Burning by Renaissance
Ashes Are Burning
Some basic tablature signs I used:
F/D - means F chords on C root.
| - separation mark between two bars
on tab: / - slide up to the following note
\ - slide down...
~ - kinda tremolo... ~6 means a fast 67646 (organ solo only)
Intro: cymbals give the rhythm and then:
1. Intro:
