Leave It by the Yes
Tabbed by: Todd Cathey toddofla@yahoo.com
On 1993 Modulus Graphite Sweet Spot 4-string


I'll tab out the main parts of the song; listen through
while you practice it and put the parts together. There's
really only chorus & verse plus some easy breaks.


Starting about 1:04min into the song, after a bunch of
a cappella stuff: Lead in to the chorus riff:
G|----------------------------------------------||
D|-------------------------------(8)8-8--7-5-3--||
A|----------------------------------------------||
E|----------------------------------------------||

G|----------------------------------------------||
D|---5-3------3---------------------------------||
A|--------3-5---5--1-3-5------------------------||
E|-----------------------1-3--------------------||


G|----------------------------------------------||
D|---5-3------3----------3-3-3H5----------------||
A|--------3-5---5--1-3-5------------------------||
E|----------------------------------------------||

G|----------------------------------------------||
D|---5-3------3---------------------------------||
A|--------3-5---5--1-3-5------------------------||
E|-----------------------1-3--------------------||


Verse is pretty simple, he's doing all the a cappella
stuff again while playing this:
G|----------------------------------------------||
D|----------------------------------------------||
A|----------------------------------------------||
E|--3--3--1-1-3--3------------------------------||
etc; just time the notes quarters and eights as they
are played, slide around a bit.

Next lead-in to chorus is a fun little run up in the
middle of the neck, real easy though:

G|-----15-14------------------------------------||
D|------------17-15-----------------------------||
A|------------------17-15---13-15-17------------||
E|-----------------------------------13-15------||
then back into the regular chorus part as above.
Have some fun with the parts, listen to how he
hammers or slides around a bit even within such
a constricted format.

Like most prog rock songs, it's not supposed to have a meaning. I love the a cappella beginning.
