PARIS - Rodrigo Y Gabriela
E|E|------------------------------------------------------------------
E|-------------||
Tabbed by: Adrian Andronic
Tuning: Standard
This is a great song by Rod and Gab! It's hard though, so it'll
probably take quite some
practice to get this down. The tab is long but organized in sections
with song times so
hopefully you don't get lost.
You might find this harder/awkward to play on a full body classical
guitar that doesn't
allow easy access to the higher frets. In my opinion, everything is
doable with some
awkward spots, except for one small bit which I've noted in the tab and
provided an
alternative.
In the beginning part of the intro, the two guitars play the same
thing, with one slight
variation.*
At 0:10, they split up and play different parts. I call the 2 guitars
left and right
guitars (L.G., R.G.)
because if wearing headphones or using speakers, one is heard on the
left, and the other
on the right.

Not sure about the last note at the end

Phew! That's it! Enjoy this great song. Comments/suggestions welcome.
** In this line, the 14-16-14 will be practically impossible to play up
to speed
if you aren't using a guitar with a cutaway. Instead, you can play
this:
