Miley Cyrus – Flowers (Tab) Hold on to you hairpieces, I’m covering a song while it’s still popular: Miley Cyrus’s recent hit Flowers Intro: Just picking out a Cmaj7 chord. Verse: Nothing too difficult here. Mostly standard chords and a melody in the first position. Chorus: Here’s where it gets tricky with a lot of […]

Kung Fu Master (Tab) A recent nostalgia trip compelled me to knock up a version of Masato Ishizaki’s music from the 80s arcade game Kung-Fu Master. The tune is very quick. Even slowed down, it’s still a challenge. In order to cut the finger movement to a minimum, it’s arranged campanella style so the work […]
