*Here Comes the Sun* is a great tune.  This 
arrangement by Rick Ruskin really nails it.
As example, and before you get into it, give
measure 19 a shot...sound familiar?  It will
take some patience to get the fingering down
but its worth the effort.

I am concerned that because the record has been
out of print a long time many will not be able
to play this.  The good news is that the melody
is very well known so that will help. A great
arrangement, it is too bad that Ruskin has 
never received the recognition he deserves.
Fingerstyle Guitar magazine has done a lot
to correct that.   
  
Playing Notes: (numbers refer to measure)

1. Slow with feeling. Hold the arpeggio
notes for two beats or more. The rest of
the tune is up to tempo but not as fast
as you might think.  Medium pace.

2. A double bass lead...not unlike Blind
Blake ie., Rick frequently plays two bass
notes before a melody note.  Two ways to
do this... two consecutive thumbs or first
use thumb (6th strg) then index (4th strg).
I prefer the latter and then play the pinched
notes with thumb/middle or thumb/middle.

3.  This took me forever to finger smoothly.
Use ring finger on 6th, middle on 3rd, index
on 2nd.  Keep ring down and slide down to 
6th strg, 4th fret. As you do that, shift index
finger to 3rd strg and move middle to 2nd strg.
Once middle finger anchored on 3rd fret, 2nd
keep it there for rest of measure.  Use thumb
to get 6th strg, 2nd fret. Whew!! A major reason
why you need to capo on IV...Rick has long 
fingers!

4.  Feel free to hammer-on the open to 2nd fret
notes.  This holds true throughout.  Rick does
not... but what does he know?? :-)     
If you must, you can use the open 4th strg vice 
the 4th fret, fourth strg throughout. 
You will lose alittle by doing so but if it
helps..go for it.  To get the 4th fret, 4th
strg you must use the pinky. (well, I
suppose you could use your nose!!)

7. I recommend using the index finger on last
note in prep for open 6th w/thumb in measure 8.
11.  I use alternating thumb and index on first
four notes of the chromatic run then two thumbs
on last two notes.

14.  Use pinky/ring on 7th fret. Keep pinky down
and slide up to get 3rd fret E7 note lead in.

19.  The Beatles played this part about 6 
or 7 times as I recall.  I repeat this measure
several times just to give my left hand a rest.
If you really get into the tune you will see
what I mean.

20.  Second half of measure basically the same
theme as measure 19. Again, some tricky fingering.
If too hard, just play as noted in 19.

You may want to play more hammer-ons and pulloffs on
the D chord...ie. the 1st and 3rd strings. As example,
in measures 2,4,8 etc., try pulloffs vice two separate
notes on the 1st and 3rd string.
