This tab covers about the first minute of the song, before it gets to the really notey stuff. It's mostly the right hand, since the right hand has the melody. However, there are some points in the song where I've added the bass notes that the left hand is playing in brackets [](where I think they sound good, and aren't too difficult to play, but you can ignore them if you want, it'll still sound fine). The song is in 3/4, and I've marked the rhythms. However these are just a very loose framework, since in the recording, Ryan Gosling plays around with the tempo a lot to make the song sound more musical. ****************************************************************************** (ring open)- let this string ring out while playing the other notes [] - bass notes/ left hand () - optional notes for accuracy, more difficult ****************************************************************************** 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|------------------------|-------------------------| D|-----4---6---7---6---4--|-------------------------| A|-4----------------------|-5-----------------------| E|------------------------|--------[5]--------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|------------------------|-------------------------| D|-----4---6---7---6---4--|-------------------------| A|-5----------------------|-4-----------------------| E|------------------------|--------[4]-----[2]------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|------------------------|-------------------------| D|-----4---6---7---6---4--|-------------------------| A|-4----------------------|-5-----------------------| E|------------------------|--------[5]-----[7]------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|-4----------------------|-------------------------| D|-----7---6---7---6---4--|-------------------------| A|------------------------|-4-----------------------| E|------------------------|--------[2]--------------| This section is played in octaves (you play two notes at once; the base note, and then the note an octave above that notes). When I play it, I usually just play the upper note and leave out the lower octave, which is what I'm going to do in this tab (because it still sounds fine). However, if you want to play it exactly the way it was recorded, just play each note in the tab along with the note an octave below it. 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|---------4---5---4------|-------------------------| B|-----7---------------7--|-------------------------| G|-6----------------------|-7-----------------------| D|------------------------|-------------------------| A|------------------------|----------------[2]------| E|------------------------|--------[2]--------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|---------4---5---4------|-------------------------| B|-----7---------------7--|-------------------------| G|-7----------------------|-6-----------------------| D|------------------------|-------------------------| A|------------------------|-------------------------| E|------------------------|--------[0]-----[2]------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|---------4---5---4------|-------------------------| B|-----7---------------7--|-------------------------| G|-6----------------------|-7-----------------------| D|------------------------|-------------------------| A|------------------------|----------------[2]------| E|------------------------|--------[2]--------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|-7---5---4---5---4------|-------------------------| B|---------------------7--|-------------------------| G|------------------------|-6-----------------------| D|------------------------|-------------4---6---7---| A|------------------------|---------7---------------| E|------------------------|-------------------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|-7---6---4---6---4------|-------------------------| D|---------------------7--|-4---------------6-------| A|------------------------|-------------------------| E|------------------------|-------------------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|-6---4-------4----------|-------------------------| D|---------7-------7---6--|-4-----------------------| A|------------------------|-------------------------| E|------------------------|--------[5]-----[7]------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|-7---6---4---6---4------|-------------------------| D|---------------------7--|-4---------------6-------| A|------------------------|-------------------------| E|------------------------|-------------------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|-6----------------------|-----------------6-------| D|------------------------|-4-------7---------------| A|---------7-------8------|-------------------------| E|------------------------|-------------------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|-7---5-------5----------|-------------------------| G|---------7-------7---6--|-4--------------[4]-[6]--| D|------------------------|-6-----------------------| A|------------------------|--------[7]-[8]----------| E|------------------------|-------------------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|-9---7---6---3---2---0--|-------------------------| G|-10--7---6---4---2---1--|-1-----------------------| D|------------------------|---------4-------3-------| A|------------------------|-0-(ring open)-----------| E|------------------------|-------------------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|------------------------|-------------------------| D|-4---6---4---6---7------|-4---6---4---6---7-------| A|-5-(ring open)----------|-4-(ring open)-----------| E|------------------------|-------------------------| 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-----------------6-------| G|------------------------|-4---------------4-------| D|-4---6---4---6---7---4--|---------0-------0-------| A|-3-(ring open)----------|---------8---------------| E|------------------------|---------7---------------| tempo starts speeding up here 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a e|------------------------|-------------------------| B|------------------------|-------------------------| G|-1-(ring open)----------|-0-(ring open)-----------| D|-2-
