And thanks for the song. I'll give it a try.]]> Easy Songs Saber https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/weather-with-you-crowded-house/#post-173170 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/weather-with-you-crowded-house/#post-173082 Sat, 22 Apr 2006 21:59:43 +0000 Split Enz to Crowded House, solo efforts, Finn, The Finn Brothers, etc. They are master songwriters and excellent musicians. I have many of their tunes in my binder. Nice to see them get some kudos by others.

Keep up the good work!!!]]> Easy Songs chuckntracy05 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/weather-with-you-crowded-house/#post-173082 https://guitarnoise.forum/easy-songs/weather-with-you-crowded-house/#post-17209 Sat, 22 Apr 2006 13:10:23 +0000
Anyway, Thursday night went the pub with a mate for a drink or two (rare thing these days) There were two guys playing an acoustic set, pretty good too. My ears pricked up when I heard them play the opening riff of this gem. I've always liked "Crowded House" and their later incarnation "The Finn Brothers" and this is a classic and one of their best songs in my opinion from their "Woodface" album.

Well, I watched how it was played intently and decided that it can't be that hard.(Found that as a learning guitar player I do get lost in how the song is played rather than just enjoying it, how about the rest of you out there?)

Trawled the tab sites and found this easy version in Em key. Probably not the original key. So no credit to me I have just cut and pasted this with very slight tidying up.

I surprised myself in that I could play the lead guitar part too. (Must be easy!) With a bit of practice I could get good. Must present this to Rodders as a joint effort next time we have a jam session. Yeah! me going up to fret 12, let alone finding it!!! Until now an almost unexplored zone on my guitar's neck!!

The Strum Pattern? well I am lucky enough to just feel how it goes. Maybe we could all do what Mattguitar suggested with his "Breakfast In America" project and all contribute improvements through this forum.

Anyway here it is:
