Moonlight Sonata Guitar Tabs by Beethoven Ludwig

Artist: Beethoven
Song: Moonlight Sonata
Tabbed by: John Leadman

   Beautiful intro and real easy too. The chords I give you may
   seem strange but I only type in the notes you use, it's not chords
   to strum, they just show you where to put your fingers.

   CHORDS:


   Dm   (xx0231)
   Dm/C (x3x231)
   Bb   (x1x331)
   Eb/G (3xx343) <- I use my thumb to play the bass note on this chord.
   A1   (x0x253)
   A2   (x0x231)
   A3   (x0x230)
   A4   (x0x020)


       Dm                      Dm/C
   E|------1-----1-----1-----1-----1-----1-----1-----1--|
   B|----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3----|
   G|--2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2------|
   D|--0------------------------------------------------|
   A|--------------------------3------------------------|
   E|---------------------------------------------------|

      Bb          Eb/G        A1    A2    A3    A4
   E------1-----1-----3-----3-----3-----1-----0-----0---|
   B----3-----3-----4-----4-----5-----3-----3-----2-----|
   G--3-----3-----3-----3-----2-----2-----2-----0-------|
   D----------------------------------------------------|
   A--1-----------------------0-----------0-------------|
   E--------------3-------------------------------------|


   By now you've learned enough to impress everybody. I've just figured
   out the next part of the Moonlight sonata. But I've just
   tabbed the rhythm picking. I didn't tab the melody
   because it's impossible to play the rhythm and the melody in
   this song on one guitar and the picking pattern sounds really
   great even without the melody.


   CHORDS:


   Dm  (xx0231)
   C#* (x4x253)  <-this one is tricky. I use my ring finger on the
   Gm  (3xx333)    A string, my index finger on the G string,
   C*  (x3x211)    my pinky on the B string and my middle finger on
   C   (x32010)    the E string.
   F   (xx3211)
   Fm  (xx3111)

       Dm                      C#*
