Rod Stewart – Maggie May (Tab)
A tab of Rod Stewart’s 70s smash Maggie May.
Intro 1: The album version of the track starts with Martin Quittenton’s (completely out of place) little contrapuntal piece in 3/4 time. I almost skipped it but it’s a fun tune that’s worth learning by itself.
Intro 2: The second intro is much more in keeping with the song’s melancholy mood.
Verses: The verses are fairly straightforward. It’s mostly strummed with a few notes picked out here and there.
Solo: Loosely based on the original with lots of sliding around the fretboard. As always, throw some ideas of your own in here.
