Dead Man Theme (back)

TUNING: EADGBE

SUBMITTED BY: Preston Nichols & Dave Holden (TAB) CHORDS: Bm:224432 E:022100 D:x00232 D2:x00230 F#:244322 Bbaug:xx4332 E7:022130 Em7:022030 A:002220 G:320003 From the Dead Man-soundtrack These are the chords for the acoustic accompaniment for the Theme from Dead Man, which was used for the opening and closing titles of the film, for Jim Jarmusch's music video, and on various promotional CDs. It was not included on the the "Music from and inspired by..." CD (to the consternation of millions). Play this along with track 11 of the Dead Man CD, or at least parts of it. Maybe the meter should be 6/4? Maybe you want to play the Bm as (xx4432) and the F# (x4322) so that you can open or hammer on the 6th string for some of the melody notes, or something. Maybe the Em7 should be something like G6 (the only difference being the bass note). Maybe the Bbaug should be different (or named differently)? I'm pretty sure about the (...332); the melody has an E, but I think it's just a passing note, and the harmony has an F# (Bb-D-F#). I could be wrong though. In 6/4 time, 20 bars total per "verse": | Bm / / / / / | / / / / / / | | E / / / / / | / / / / / / | | D / / / / / | / / / / / / | | F# / / / / / | / / / / / / | | Bm / / Bbaug / / | D / / E7 / / | | Em7 / / / / / | A / / / / / | | Bm / / / / A | G / / A / / | (three times) | Bm / / / / / | / / / / / / | (repeat) ------------------------------------------------------------ solo guitar 5 - similar to the electric guitar on dead man theme |-2----0-2-0-------|---0-2-----0-2-0---|-----2-----0-2-0---| |-3--3-------3-----|-0-----0-----------|-3------3--------3-| |-4----------------|-1-----------------|---2---------------| |-4----------------|-2-----------------|-------------------| |-2----------------|-2-----------------|-------------------| |------------------|-0-----------------|-------------------| |----0-0-0-0-0-----|---2---2---2---0---|----0--------------| |-2--3-5-7-5-3-----|--3---3---3---0----|---3-3------0--2---| |------------------|-4---3---2---1-----|--0---0-----0--2---| |------------------|-------------------|-2----------0--2---| |------------------|-------------------|-------------------| |------------------|-------------------|-------------------| |------------------|-------------------|------------------| |------------3-2-0-|--------------3-2-0|------------------| |------------4-2-0-|--------------4-2-0|------------------| |------------4-2-0-|-----------0--4-2-0|------------------| |---0-2-0-2--------|--0-4-2-0-2-2------|---0-4-2-0--------| |-2----------------|-2-----------------|-2---------2------|
