Okay, here's the promised TAB for the Who's "Behind Blue
Eyes":

Now the arpeggio changes to strumming, the pattern of which I
won't try

to notate, due to my lack of skills in transcribing on computer.
In the

beginning each chord is just a quarter note followed by another,
which is tied

to a pair of eighth notes. There are quite a few changes in this
pattern so I

advise listening to the recording, which I assume is almost a
given in using

TAB, anyway.

The chords are:

Cadd9(x32030), D(xx0232), D/F#(2x0232) (Using the thumb for the
base

note is probably the easiest way, albeit classically improper way
to form this

chord.) G (320003), C/G(3x2013), D/A(x00232), E(0221000),
A/E(0311xx),

Bm(x24432), C(x32010), Dsus4(xx0233) and Asus2(x02200). Many of
these are the

same chords as were arpeggiated in the earlier sequence. The chord
changes in

this pattern go: Cadd9, D, D/F, G, C/G, G, Cadd9, D, D/A, E, A/E,
E, Bm, C, D,

A, D, Dsus4, D, Asus2. Again, listen to the recording, as some of
these are

strummed for several measures, while others are merely quick
changes lasting a

quarter note.

Now, it returns to the arpeggiated sequence, with "No one knows
what

it's like, to feel these feelings. Skip the first couple bars of
the intro and

begin on the Em. The pattern is nearly identical to the first time
played, but

note the changes between the arpeggiation each time the Dsus4
chord comes

around. After playing the arpeggio a couple times go back to the
chord

strumming bit, and then to the break, which is in double time:

hold bend|------|release bend

e---------------------12----------------------------12-----12---------------

B--T-------12--12-12-----12---12-12---12-12-12--12--12-------12-----12-12-12

G--A-------11b----11b----11----9--9----9--9--9----9-11b\11---11b\11-----9--9

D--B------------------------11------11----------11------------------11------

A---------------------------------------------------------------------------

E-----12\-0-----------------------------------------------------------------

 

e--------------------------- Now, the bridge with the guitar
playing chords

B--T----12-12-12------------in this order: E5, Bm, A, E, Bm, G, D,
Bm, A, D,

G--A-----9--9--9-----9------Bm, A, E, Bm, A, E5, B5, A5, E5, Bm,
G, D, Bm, A,

D--B--11----------11-9---9\-D, Bm, A, G, E5, Bm, A, E5, Bm, A, B,
A, G, D, B,

A---------------------------A, G, D, B, A, G, D, E... and then
into an arpeggio

E--------------------------0of a B/A (x0444x), and then back to
the main

pattern to close. During the brige there is a second guitar
playing the solo,

which I promise to include tomorrow, I haven't time tonight.
