The Countess Cathleen Intro


This is kinda the guitar intro for The Countess Cathleen. I know it isn't 100% so feel free to correct me. This is the way I play it; it sounds great with the rest of the parts or alone. It is mostly in 9/8 time so the meter is a little weird... g means to ghost the note (as in play it softly) Intro rif: Em e|---------00-0--| B|-------3---3---| G|-----0--0------| x 4 D|---2-----------| A|---------------| E|---------------| V1: Em D C G C D e|----------00-0-------00-0---------------g0----g0-----| B|-------3----3------3---3------3----------------------| G|-----0--0--------2--2-------0--0---------------------| D|---2-----------0-------------------------------0-----| x 2 A|--------------------------3------2----2--3-----------| E|-----------------------------------------------------| G Em D G Em D Bm C D C Bm C G Am G e|---------00-0-------00--0-------00--0-------00-0---------00-0-------------------| B|-------3---3------3---3-------3---3-------3---3--------3---3--------------------| G|-----0----------0-----------0-----------0------------0--------------------------| D|--------------2-----------------------2----------4------------4--2--0-----------| A|---------------------------------------------------3------------------3-2-0-----| E|---3----------------------3-------------------------------------------------3-0-| Em D e|----------00-0-------00-0-| B|-------3----3------3---3--| G|-----0--0--------2--2-----| D|---2-----------4----------| x 2 A|--------------------------| E|--------------------------| Back to V1 I will try to tab out the fiddle part when I get a chance.
