This is a by-ear arrangement of the Jake Shimabukuro cover of "While my Guitar Gently Weeps". Jake does an insane cover of the song on the ukulele, but it's hard to find a uke tab for it. Maybe this guitar transcription will help. All credit to my guitar teacher Scott, who's awesome enough to work out weird requests like this (and he gets 'em perfect every time). Artist: Jake Shimabukuro Song: While My Guitar Gently Weeps (live in Central Park) Original by George Harrison Tuning: Standard EADGBE Capo on 8th fret Sorry, no timing/strumming. For the single chords, try just plucking them instead of strumming. The capo can make it confusing, so remember this: your double dotted (12th) fret will be 4 in this tab, and your next dot (15) will be 7. The highest note (in the solo) is at the last fret on most guitars (20), in the tab it's 12.

There's some small differences here, it's more strummy. Also after the "X" there's a pair of notes (1,4) that you don't play here, instead strum the 3 chords after the X fast. After all that, you'll play the [2x41] chord once, then play this chord: [2x21] just before the solo Solo (middle parts might be off) Low part of solo (play twice) then middle once. -3----3----3----3--|| -3----5----5----5--- -0----3----2----1--|| -0----3----2----1--- -0----0----0----0--|| -0----0----0----0--- -2----2----2----2--|| -2----2----2----2--- -------------------|| -------------------- -------------------|| -------------------- Middle part 2 of solo (play once) then play the next High part (with the 12's) 4 times using different strumming patterns each time. ?-3----5----7----8-- -12---12---12---12-- ?-0----3----3----3-- --0----0----0----0-- ?-0----0----0----0-- --0----0----0----0-- ?-2----2----2----2-- --9---12---11---10-- ?------------------- -------------------- ?------------------- -------------------- The cool final strum pattern is d udu d udu d udu d d d Gradually slow it, then strum the final chord once and go into the fingerpicking part with the same chords. I'm not positive on the picking pattern. Fingerpicking part (do 2 reps for each chord, gradually slow and at the end pluck the highest and lowest strings together. ----12--|----12--|----12--|----12--| --0-----|--0-----|--0-----|--0-----| ---0----|---0----|---0----|---0----| -9------|12------|11------|10------| --------|--------|--------|--------| --------|--------|--------|--------| Outro ---0-2-3-----------2-3---------2-3------5-----3-----5-----| ----------------------------2--------1--1--1--1--1--1--1--| ------------------0----------0--------0-----0-----0-----0-| /2-2-2-2--0-1-2--2------0-2-------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------------| -0--7--3--0--5-5---5-2h5----2/4-|-?11-----11- -0--8--5--0--3--3-------3---3/5-|-?12--?5---- -0-----------4---4-------4--4/6-|-?11--?4---- -------------4------------------|------?2---- --------------------------------|------------ -0------------------------------|------------ The final chord is tricky. The fingerpicking seems to use the 245 notes, but on top of those you hear the 11 being trilled. It's an impossible reach so you'll have to fake it. PS: You can capo on the 3rd fret to play this too, it sounds good (just doesn't sound like the uke).
