GOING HOME (MARK KNOPFLER)


About 

Main Theme of „Local Hero“, a wonderful movie. And a killer tune. Requested by Grumpy.

 

Original Key

D

 

Tuning 

Low G

 

Tab Notes

Includes the intro and the main theme (on three pages !). That is a rare example of my ukulele tabs that stick to the original key. In this case it just had to be, for session requirements. Gheetar players are not very flexible (ha). Hence, the last eight bars of the intro had to be transposed one octave up. Since the melody goes quite low in some passages, it is important to keep the filler arpeggios in the background. The final two bars of the main theme are just improvised. I am sure you will find a better ending to it.
