Verse:
7 7 7 7*-7* 7 7 7 7* -7*
Jan-u-ar-y and Feb-ru-ar-y were
7 7 7 7 7* -7* 5
nev-er so emp-ty and gray
-3* -3* -3*-3* -3* -3* -6* -6
Tra-gic’-lly I feel like cry-ing
-5* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -3* -7* 7*
«With-out you, my dar-ling, I’m dy-ing.»
7 -5* -5* -5* -5* -5* -5* -6
But let’s rath-er put it this way:

Chorus:
-7* -3* 5 -3* 5 -3* 8 -7* -5
SPRING WILL BE A LIT-TLE LATE THIS YEAR,
-3* 5 -3* 8 -7* -5 -5*
A lit-tle late ar-riv-ing
-6 7 7* -6* 7 7*-6* 7
in my lone-ly world o-ver here
-5* -9 8 -7* -5*
For you have left me,
-5* -5* -5* -5* -5*-5* -5*-5*
and where is our Ap-ril of old?
-9 8 -7* -5*
You have left me,
-5* -6 -6 -6 -6 7* -4
and win-ter con-tin-ues cold,
-5 -6 7* -8 -7* -3* 5
As if to say Spring will be
-3* 5 -3* 8 -7* -5
a lit-tle slow to start,
-3* 5 -3* 8 -7* -5 -5* -6
A lit-tle slow re-viv-ing that
7 7* -6* 7 7* -6* 7
mu-sic it made in my heart.
-5* -9 8 -7* -5*
Yes, time heals all things,
-5*-5* -5* -5* -5* -5* -5* -8
so I need-n’t cling to this fear,
-5 -6 7* 8 -7* -3* 5
It’s mere-ly that SPRING WILL BE
-3* 5 -3* 8 -5 -5*
A LIT-TLE LATE THIS YEAR.

REPEAT

-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 6 -6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
I’ve got a riv er of life flow in out of me.

-5 -5 -5 6 -6 6 -5 6 -6 6
Makes the lame to walk and the blind to see.

-5 -5 -5 6 -6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
O pens pri son doors, sets the cap tives free,

7 7 7 7 7 -8 7 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5
I’ve got a riv er of life- flow in out of me.

-6 -6 -5 6 -5 -5 -5 -8 7 -6
Spring up Oh- well — within my soul-

-6 -6 -5 6 -5 -5 -5 -6 6 -6
Spring up Oh- well — and make me whole

-6 -6 -5 6 -5 -5 -5 -8 7 -6
Spring up Oh- well — and give to me —

-8 7 -6 -5 6 6 -5
That life — a bun dant ly.

-6* 7 6
Spring is here
-6* -6* -6* -6* -6* 7 6 6
Why does-n’t my heart go danc-ing
-5 6 5
Spring is here
-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 6 5 5
Why is-n’t the waltz en-tranc-ing.
-4 5 -5 6 -6* 7 -7 -8 6 7
No de-sire, no am-bi-tion leads me.
-4 4* -5* 6 -6* 7 -7 -8 8* -9
May-be it’s be-cause no-bod-y needs me.

-6* 7 6
Spring is here
-6* -6* -6* -6* -6* 7 6 6
Why does-n’t the breeze de-light me?
-5 6 5
Stars ap-pear!
-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 6 5 5
Why does-n’t the night in-vite me?
-4 4* -5* 6 -6* 7 -7 -8 8* -9
May-be it’s be-cause no-bod-y loves me.
-9 7 -8 -7 7
Spring is here, I hear.

6 8 -8 7 -7 6 -6
Once there was a thing called Spring.
-7 7 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 8
When the world was writing verses
-8 -7 6 -6
like yours and mine.
6 8 -8 7 -7 6 6
All the lads and girls would sing
-7 7 -8 -8 -8 -8 -8 8
When we sat at little tables
-8 7 -6 7
and drank May wine.
8 -8 7 -7 6 -7
Now April, May, and June
-8 7 -7 -6 -5 -6
are sadly out of tune.
-5 6 -6 -7 7 -8 8 -9 -8
Life has stuck the pin in the balloon.
refrain:
-7 7 -6 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 -6 -6
Spring is here! Why doesn’t my heart go dancing?
6 -6 -5 6 6 6 6 -6 -5 -5
Spring is here! Why isn’t the waltz entrancing.
5 -5 6-6 -7 7 -8 8 -6 -7
No desire, no ambition leads me.
5 -5 6 -7 -7 7-8 8 -9 9
Maybe it’s because nobody needs me.
-7 7 -6 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 -6 -6
Spring is here! Why doesn’t the breeze delight me?
6 -6 -5 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -5 -5
Stars appear! Why doesn’t the night invite me?
5 -5 6 -6 -7 7-8 8 -9 9
Maybe it’s because nobody loves me.
9 7 8 -8 7
Spring is here, I hear.

Spring from The Four Seasons

This classical song is easily recognizable and also fun to play on
harmonica. It also works amazingly well on a diatonic harmonica and
has no bends.

Ak sem te ikada fkanil, ak sem i prešel vu kvar

Ak sem ti srčeko ranil, pozabil te nebum nigdar

Ak sem ti srčeko ranil, pozabil te nebum nigdar

Ak sem i druge gledal, ak sem i kušlec koj dal

O tem ti nisem povedal, da potem ti ne bude žal

O tem ti nisem povedal, da potem ti ne bude žal

Ak sem s pajdašima ostal, ak sem te v noći
zbudil

Popevke te semu su krive, i vince kaj srcu godi

Popevke te semu su krive, i vince kaj srcu godi

Ak ti i nisem došel, ak sem pozabil te zvat

Ja ti se znova kunem, zatajil te nebum nigdar

Ja ti se znova kunem, zatajil te nebum nigdar

Song Level: Expert

Alrighty I finished it.. I played through the entire song slow and fast and this is it.

THIS IS AN EXPERT LEVEL SONG… that means scoop bends tone control vibrato etc needs to be down pack!

the subletlies of this song are many and I suggest breaking the song into sections to learn it.

I used bendometer to tab this out and the accuracy in my opinion is 2nd to none.

The articulation in this song is ULTRA IMPORTANT.. I tried to notate the subtleties of the song but only the ones that are crucial made it in.

. I tried my best to make this tab as simple as possible to read. I even used DAVID BARRETTES notation system.

Please dont complicate the song more than it already is. take your time and play each riff slowly..

YOU MUST LISTEN TO THE SONG IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO FULLY GRASP THE MAGNiTude and timing of each riff.. any who.. 🙂 harp on…!!!

Not only is this an amazing blues song, it is featured in one of the
best anime’s to have been released in the past decade. This is the
song that inspired me to learn how to play the harmonica, and every
time I listen to it I discover something new. It is more than worth
your money to purchase the full Cowboy Bebop OST1 soundtrack,
especially if you like jazz and blues. It has taken me a while to
perfect this song, and I still can’t make my harp growl and wail like
the original artist does, who I suspect has been playing the harp
since he/she was a child. But I’m getting close.

Don’t try this song unless you have heard it, and have mastered all
the bends and have good control of the harp.

This song was extremely hard to tab (especially the intro because
there’s no real rythm to it, so it’s hard to indicate the timing on
some of the riffs). It’s also hard to include all the effects, but
I’ve tried to include all the important wah’s, shakes and a few
vibratos; however, definitely listen to the song in order to
appreciate all the subtleties. And as always, play with your gut and
let the harp sing from your heart. See you later space cowboy…

http://chakra.u13.net/spokey%20dokey%20tab.txt

Tab for Spokey Dokey — Diatonic Harmonica in the key of D — The first
1 and a half minutes.

i = inhale
b = small bend
B = full bend
Bb = full bend + 1 (for that number 3 hole)
— = quick transgression to (hell all the notes move quickly, but
these ones go that bit quicker than the rest.
Sometimes so much so you can barely spot it.)
x = multiplication (ie: hit i1 x5 means inhale hole 1 five times)

At the end and above each line of notes is a time indication of where
that
string of notes ends according to the original 4 minutes and 5 seconds
long
tune Spokey Dokey, so you understand whereabouts these notes are being
played.

eg: 01:01 is one minute and one second

This is a complicated tune to tab, and definitely not a tune for
beginners. I picked
up a harp because of this tune setting out to play it, and only a year
later did I
manage to get it together. Can’t say I can do it perfectly, but you’d
be hard pushed
to find many mistakes!

Can’t say the tab is perfect either, but it’s my interpretation of it
through ear, through
using Bendometer ( www.harpsoft.com ), and slowing down the track
using audio editing software
to get a clearer idea of what the hell he was doing.

If you want to play this tune, you’ll need good tone control, good
draw-bend control, decent at tremolo and wah-wah, shakes, tongue
blocking
and slapping, a decent harmonica and not one of those cheap $5 ones,
maybe some spare lungs, and if you’re a perfectionist theres two
chorded notes too.

The first 00:03-00:09 seconds still puzzles me. He has this ‘effect’
that I can never
perfectly emulate. For all I know I got it right, but it never sounds
quite right to me.

00:02
i3 i2 i2B-i1 <--hover on i2, then bring in the bend fast and slip onto the 1 00:04 i1-2i 1-3 i1-2i <-- the 1 in '1-3' is only there to help hit 2 inbetween hard while you move on to 3, seeing as you'll be shooting your mouth over them fast. Put a lot of effort into the initial blow/inhale of air 00:06 i1-i2 x3 345 <-- repeat i1-i2 3 times in the appropriate rhythm. What I do, is keep my lips firmly on i2, but 'nudge' the left side of the harp deeper into my mouth so that i1 scratches in there somewhere. i1 is a very brief sound. '345' is actually a light exhalation around the hole of 3 4 and 5. Don't overdo it, but try to get some spare breathe out as you'll be inhaling alot. 00:07 i2 i1-i2 x2 345 00:08 i2 i1-i2 x2 345 00:09 i3-i4 3x <---shake it. Don't be afraid to hit i2 as well. Sounds good. With no gap, move onto whats below. 00:11 4 i4b-i4 i5 i5 5 i4 4 i4 <--- this bit is done while tongue slapping the notes after the first i4b-i4. 00:13 i3-i4-i3 4 i4b i4 i4b 4 i3-i4-i3-i2 <--no tongue slapping now, unless you can while bending. Hats off to you. 00:17 6 i5-5-i4-4 i3-i4-i3 4-i4b-i4 <--- Hit the 6 with a big-ass tongue slap. The i3-i4-i3 has to be done while tongue blocking for that sloppy wet feel, and the bit before it while tongue 'slapping'. Theres a difference. 00:20 6 i6 6 i6 i5 i4 4 i3 4 i4 <-- See if you can slip in a shake after i6. Slide up to the first 6 discreetly and fast too. 00:22 00:24 i3-i4-i4b-i3-4 i4b-i4-i4b-4 i3-i4x3 4 i4b-i4-i4 x4 <-- so fast it'll make your nose bleed. i3-i4x3 is a shake. End the 4ix4 with a i4b and scroll it down to i2. Oh yeah, and mix the i4's at the end with some i5 00:24 to 00:30 is just hammering i4 and i5 in a rhythm you'll just have to pick up by ear, ending in i4-i4b-i4-i4b-4-4 x ending at 00:34 with a very long 4 blow 00:39 i3b-4 i3b-4-i4b-i4-i4b-4 i3b-4 x3 i3b i2-i3-i2 <--- this requires a little character. After the first i3b-4, quickly run in your inhale down to i2 before hitting i3b again. On the last i2, wiggle a bend up and down. 00:44 i1-i2B i2 i3b-i3-4 i4b-i4 ... i4b-i4-i4b-4 6 <--- the ...'s mean the i4 before it hangs for about a second. tremolo or wah-wah (or both) the 6 hole blow. Whatever feels good. From the 6 hole above, quickly i6 and run all the way down to i2, then back up again to i5. Hang on i5 for a sec, then quickly hit i3 then 5 blow. Don't run your inhale back up to i5 'then' hit 5 blow. This is where chords come in. 5 blow on a key of D harp is F-Sharp. The other F-sharp is 2 blow, so if you can, hit both of 'em. I'll explain how in a second. Hold that for a second then move onto i4, which is E. If you can, hit i1 as well, as that's also an E. Wah-wah/tremolo all the way through it all. Doing chords ain't easy, as it's about manipulating your tongue onto the holes between the notes you want to play, so you get the clear crisp chord of two of the same notes in a different octave playing. At this point, we're 00:52 seconds into the tune. 🙂 00:55 i5 i4b-i4 i4b-down-to-i2 00:59 i1-i3B 4 i4-i4b-i4-i3 5-i4b-i3b-i2b <--i1 to i3B is hard to describe. i1 is hardly noticable to the listener, and a 'clucking' noise should be made in it's lighting fast transference to i3B. i4 to i3 in the middle has a mechanical rhythm. 5 to i2b as the end requires touching 5 blow, then inhaling your way down to i2b, where you should finish off with a bend wiggling up and down 4 or 5 times. And then the main chorus (i guess you can call it that) comes in with the guitar. 01:00 i3b i3B i2 i3B <-- i3B lasts a while...fade it out into I3Bb (big full on bend) 01:10 2 i2 i3B-i3 4 i4b-i4-i4b-4-3 i2B i1 01:19 1-1, i4b i3Bx3 i3Bb-3-i3B <--- mess it up. Leak the mouth over i4 and i2 randomly. 01:30 2 3 i3 i4 5 i5 i4 i4b-i4-i4b 4 i4 i3B-i3 i2-i3-i2 2 i1 (quick) (shake) Well thats it. The rest is easy going after that, if you can do the above, you can pick up the rest by ear or learn through a programme called 'Bendometer'. Find it at www.harpsoft.com You can use it to detect what notes being played on a harmonica. If you know how to, set your recording volume control to 'stereo mix' so the computer 'listens' to your speakers rather than your microphone, meaning the Bendometer will quite simply pick up whats being played as you play a music track on your PC. For more info, google 'Stereo Mix'.

I hadnt even heard this song until i saw poeple
talking about how great it was on the forums and elsewhere. So I
found it and listened to it and loved it!
Then I searched high and low and
came out with this tab. Its confusing, I didnt tab it and certainly
cant play it very well,
but keep practicing!

This is a beautiful hymn from the Methodist Hymnal. In addition to
the harp tabs below the words, I’ve put numbers above the words so

O come and sing this song with gladness,
As your hearts are filled with joy,
Lify your hands in sweet surrender to his name.
O give him all the your tears and sadness,
Give Him all your years of pain,
And you’ll enter into life in Jesus’ name.
