J.S. Bach's 'Crab Canon' (BWV 1079 - Canon a 2, "Quaerendo invenietis")
Tabbed out using Tab Master 1.0 by Nick Zuccaro
arranged for two guitars, standard tuning
the interesting thing about this piece is that is is the same backwards
and forwards in two parts..the ending of the second part is the reverse
of the beginning of the first part..i tried to incorporate timing in it
the best i could, because you need it for this piece...the notes marked
with an 'h' are half notes that start on the fourth count and contunue
into the next measure....the pipes '|' are used to mark the beats
