Hello friends,

Thanks to popular demand,  I've spent this week working out the finer details to Simon and Garfunkels 1974 classic "The Boxer." Within the next few days I will have a full video lesson on this, but I thought some of you might like to check out my chord sheet and tab ahead of time. This transcription follows the structure of the original recording, but keep in mind that I have also pulled from live performances, especially in areas of the tune where the guitar is obscured by additional instrumentation. Enjoy!

Just joined and I'm not exactly sure where to put a song request in but I would love to see your version of cry to me by solomon burke. You seem like you really like the rhythm and blues and I've looked online and I just can't find anything that emulates the percussion in the song...and you did an awesome job bringing that out in what'd i say. Also I'd love to solo to it... I know there's no solo in the song, but if you could show me what you would do that would be great. I know you're busy but if you could find the time I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Thanks James! I would have completed this lesson already, but 7 hours of finger picking left my hands terribly sore. I'm hoping to knock it out tomorrow. Check back!
