Grantchester Meadows by Pink Floyd
Grantchester Meadows
Tuning: Standard
Although the parts are quite simple, there's LOADS of improv going on here,
especially towards the end,
mainly on the basic E major scale.
Roger Waters plays most of this; ive tabbed it how he plays it on the record,
so that's mostly sliding up and down the same string when playing the
2nd guitar part.
This is a very rhythmic song, and as standard tab cannot convey rhythm, it is
sometimes hard to read. Here, if the measure for guitar 2 appears longer than
guitar 1 sometimes, it isn't, i just couldn't fit it in! Listen to the song
to get a full sense of rhythm.
Here goes, then...
--INTRO: fade in (bird sounds, which i CANNOT tab). Two acoustics

This is all based on one chord: E major. I think that all the improvising
is in the scale of E major, but I can't be sure...

Verse 1:
Icy wind of night be gone, this is not your domain
In the sky a bird was heard to cry
Misty morning whisperings and gentle stirring sounds
Belied a deathly silence that lay all around
Chorus:
Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog-fox gone to ground
See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water
And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees
Laughing as it passes through the endless summer making for the sea.
Verse 2:
In the lazy water meadow I lay me down
All around me golden sun-flakes settle on the ground
Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon
Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room
Chorus
