------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 59th Street Bridge Song (also Feelin' Groovy) - Simon and Garfunkle ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Joshua J Email: [email protected] Tuning: Standard tuning Capo: 1st Fret Key: D# The fingering shown here assumes NO CAPO IS USED. But Simon and Garfunkle appear to use this fingering (as best I can figure out from a CD) capoed on the 1st fret. I know no one will believe me but I figured this out by ear. In other words it isn't perfect, but its sure is stinkin' close! Intro: D A Dsus2 A/C#* D/A A Dsus2 A e|-2---0-----------0-------------2-0---------0-------| B|-------2-----3-----2*------3-------2---3-----2---2-| G|---------2-----2-----2---2---2-------2---2-----2---| D|-0---2-------0---------2---4---4-2-----0-----------| A|-------------------4\0*----------------------0-----| E|---------------------------------------------------| *Ok this is hard, bar the A chord with your index fingering (you won't play high E string) and put your ring finger on the fourth fret of the A string. Pluck the B and A strings and slide your ring finger to make the bass note "slide" down and carefully lift that finger to let the A string ring freely. All this WHILE you continue to play the next three notes :( This particular sliding bass is used throughout the entire song wherever this A/C# is played.
