--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Everyday - Buddy Holly --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard Buddy Holly and the Crickets Everyday (1957) (Buddy Holly/Norman Petty) Now on: several Greatest Hits collections One of my all time favourite songs. In the original version, solo and outro are played on a celeste (a keyboard instrument sounding like a glockenspiel). For guitar, the solo looks something like this: SOLO (no capo: Eb) (played two times) Eb Ab Bb Eb Ab Bb e|11--------------|----------------|11--------------|----------------| B|11--11----------|1313131315--13--|11--11-----11---|1313131311--9---| G|----12--12------|1313131315--13--|----12--12-12---|1313131312--10--| D|--------13------|----------------|--------13------|----------------| A|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| E|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |1. time Eb Ab Bb Eb Ab Eb Bb e|11--------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| B|11--11------11--|13--11--9-------|--------13------|----------------| G|----12--12--12--|13--12--10--10--|12------13------|12--------------| D|--------13------|------------12--|13--------------|13------12------| A|----------------|----------------|----------------|--------13------| E|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |2. time OUTRO (no capo: Eb) Eb Eb7 Eb Ab Eb Bb Eb ----------------| e|----------------|----------------| --------14------| B|--------13------|11--9---8-------| 12------12------| G|12------13------|12--10--8-------| 13------13------| D|13--------------|----------------| ----------------| A|----------------|----------------| ----------------| E|----------------|----------------| The song is in Eb, so I'd suggest using a capo either 1st fret (play: D) or 3rd fret (play: C). Even with capo you can still play the solo as it doesn't go below the 8th fret. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Capo 1st fret Intro | D | D |

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- UPDATE The basic chords are as pointed out above. However, the bass on Holly's recording suggests different chords in the first verse only - along the lines of:

^DEvery^Bmday ^Emit's a-gettin' ^Acloser ^DGoin' ^Bmfaster ^Emthan a roller ^Acoaster ^DLove like ^Bmyours will^Em surely ^Acome my ^Dway ^G A-hey, ^Da-hey-^Ahey

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- And here's a second version: Many cover versions add the relative minor chord. I think it sounds nice.
