Carry On My Wayward Son Tab
=======================================================================
Song: Carry On My Wayward Son
Band: Kansas
Album: Leftoverture
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Tabbed by: Jake Something (sloppyjoe24)
UDATED (4/25/07) - Added acoustic to the song and updated a bit of the solos. I couldn't
what the real version sounded like in the acoustic part because it was blended in
far to tell, so I used a karaoke version which can't be too bad.
UPDATED (11/4/07) - Fixed a few errors
h = hammer on
p = pull off
^ = bend
r = release
t = tap
* = pinch harmonic
~ = let it ring
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
. = palm mute
+ = harmonic
v = vibrato

Guitars Tacet:
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high
