Subject: Guitar Tab Reply-To: denis@natural.com Supposedly-From: Denis J. O'Connell [This message was sent through the www-email gateway.] -- Brad, This is such a cool page. I figured this song out, and posted it to Nevada.edu. I figured that you would also want a copy, for "Play Along". I am working on more songs! Thanks, Denis ___________________________ Circle Sky by Michael Nesmith Performed by The Monkees transcribed by Denis O'Connell denis@natural.com opening riff : B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A |---7--6--5--4--3---2--1--0--0---| |---7--6--5--4--3---2--1--0--2---| |---8--7--6--5--4---3--2--1--2---| |---9--8--7--6--5---4--3--2--2---| |---9--8--7--6--5---4--3--2--0---| |---7--6--5--4--3---2--1--0------| For the verses, just keep jamming on the A chord. It sounds best if you strum with the right hand, and mute with the left, depending on how you play your A chord. It is easy to get into the right rhythm if you play along with the record and improvise a little. I got these lyrics off of the live version, because Mike is easier to understand on that version. This is my first attempt at transcribing, so if anyone has corrections, suggestions, or feedback, mail me at : denis@natural.com Enjoy! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Circle Sky by the Monkees B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A A Circle sky, telling lies. Here I stand happy man, G F E A and it looks like we've made it once again. G F E A Yes, it looks like we've made it once again. Colors, sound all around. Wing-tip smile, sees for miles. G F E A and it looks like we've made it once again. G F E A Yes, it looks like we've made it once again. B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A Bm It's a very extraordinary scene, to those who don't understand, Dm but what you have seen you must believe, E if you can, if you can. A Hamilton smiling down. Telling more, than before, G F E A and it looks like we've made it once again. G F E A Yes, it looks like we've made it to the end! B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A B Bb A Ab G Gb F E A From: uncleroy you have a great site. keep it up. i am a guitar player with a platinum selling band (out of nashville) and i wanted to make a correction on the tab for circle sky (i play it out live sometimes) in the play along section. the chord at the top of each chorus ("and it looks like") is a D chord and not a G chord. also, at the end of the bridge ("if you can") the chord is a E7 and not just a an E. hope this helps and take care. by the way, mike nesmith is the reason i started playing guitar at the age of 6 yrs...i would hope to meet him someday. God bless... mark townsend
