Wouldn’t It Be Nice intro

I forgot I had this blog until Ander$ reminded me recently. Hi, ‘Money.

That said, here’s something:

Accurate tabs for the guitar intro to
the Beach Boys' "Wouldn't It Be Nice?"
--------------------------------------

There’s some three-part harmony happening on a single guitar here. All of the tabs on the internet give only one (or rarely, two) of the voices.

CHECK IT. The highest voice is in italics, the middle normal, and lowest in bold. There is some overlap between the parts (for example, the first high A that’s played is the highest voice, the second one is the middle voice.)

E |--17----17----------------19----17-14----12-14----

May we all make it home safely.
