This is a tab for Greensleeves. I obtained it from Steven Pasero's CD "Christmas Classics for Guitar" and it is the first one I am posting on the web. So far I have only been able to find the intro. Please have in mind that this is my interpretation of the song played in and by Steven Pasero's CD "Christmas Classics for Guitar" and that it would be fair to use it only for non-profitable purposes, giving credit to whom it is deserved.

Sollscher plays it on an 11-string alto guitar, tuned as the normal renaissance lute (Bb-C-D-E-F/G-c-f-a-d-g). My transcription for the standard 6-string guitar uses E-A-D-G-B-d tuning. At the time (10 yrs ago), it seemed like a reasonable compromise, rendering most of the transcription very true to the original while still being possible to play. I think now that standard tuning would have been better, if slightly more compliacted to play, but now I can't be bothered to redo it all, sorry. The one I I give here is still a good version for the 6-string. As intro (and outro), Sollscher plays the more commonly known version of Greensleeves, which you may find a dozen or more transcriptions of to choose from.

[bars 9 and 13, basic chord changed from G to C and end chord repeated in last bar - Weed Aug 98] In 6/8 time, which is a little awkward to the untrained ears (such as my own). This tab doesn't do a very good job at correct timing, so you're on your own for that part. 0 E|-----|--------0--1--0----|---------------------|-------------------|----- B|-----|--1--3-------------|--3----0-------------|--1----------------|--0-- G|--2--|--2----------------|--0-------0--2--4----|--2--2--2--1--2----|----- D|-----|-------------------|----------0----------|-------------------|----- A|-----|--0-----3----------|---------------------|--0-----0----------|----- E|-----|-------------------|--3-------3----------|-------------------|--0-- (4) E|-------------|--------0--1--0----|---------------------|----------------- B|-------------|--1--3-------------|--3----0-------------|--1--0----------- G|--1----------|--2----------------|--0-------0--2--4----|--2-----2--1----- D|-----2-------|-------------------|----------0----------|--------------4-- A|-------------|--0-----3----------|---------------------|--0-------------- E|--------0----|-------------------|--3-------3----------|-----------0----- (7) E|-----|---------------|--3------3--2--0--|---------------------|----------- B|-----|---------------|--1------1--------|--3----0-------------|--1-------- G|--1--|--2----2--2----|--0------0--------|--0-------0--2--4----|--2--2--2-- D|-----|--2----2--2----|------------------|----------0----------|----------- A|-----|--0----0--0----|--3------3--------|---------------------|--0-----0-- E|-----|---------------|------------------|--3-------3----------|----------- (11) E|----------|----------------|--3------3--2--0--|---------------------|----- B|----------|--0-------------|--1------1--------|--3----0-------------|--1-- G|--1--2----|-----1----------|--0------0--------|--0-------0--2--4----|--2-- D|----------|--------2-------|------------------|----------0----------|----- A|----------|----------------|--3------3--------|---------------------|--0-- E|----------|--0----------0--|------------------|--3-------3----------|----- (15) E|--------------|-------------|| B|--------------|-------------|| G|--2--1-----0--|--2-----2----|| D|--------4-----|--2-----2----|| A|--------------|--0-----0----|| E|-----0--------|-------------|| ****************************************************************************** ******************************************************************************
