IMO...it's not selling out if you enjoy playing it. Besides, when I become rich and famous :roll: then I'll start being more picky.

Pink Floyd - ...Shine On You Crazy Diamond How do you manage that? Got this from guitartabs.cc

SONG: Shine on you crazy diamond
ARTIST: Pink Floyd/David Gilmour

This is sort of tabbed from the 2001 show David Gilmour did in the
royal albert hall. Since all the other tabs are for the lead guitar
I'd thought I'd do one for strumming and singing.

-FADE IN/KEYBOARD SOLO: 
On the 'Albert Hall concert' David Gilmour used a heavily amplifyed 
chorus pedal, a volume pedal and and pitchshifter set to G minor 
for this bit. If you want to just finger pick this chord while 
the keyboard solos. 

G minor: e|-3        G minor barre: e|-3
         B|-3                       B|-3
         G|-0                       G|-3
         D|-0                       D|-5
         A|-1                       A|-5
         E|-3                       E|-3


-1ST GUITAR SOLO: 
These are just the chords that the keyboard plays.
The order is tabbed from the live version on 'Pulse'. I don't
know if it's the same as on the 'Wish You Were Here'.

Gm, Dm, Cm, Gm, Dm, Cm, Dm, Gm


 C minor   D minor
e|-3   	  e|-1
B|-4	  B|-3
G|-5	  G|-2
D|-5	  D|-0
A|-3	  A|--
E|--	  E|--


-4 NOTE SEQUENCE STARTS:
This is how Gilmour plays it on the 'Albert Hall concert'. 
Repeat the first bit a few times. The first line represents 
where the floor toms would start on the record and the second 
line where the whole band would come in.

                            C major           C major
e|---------0--|-----------|-0--0-0-0----------0--0-0-0--|
B|---6--------|-----6-----|-1--1-1-1----6-----1--1-1-1--|
G|------0-----|--------0--|-0--0-0-0-------0--0--0-0-0--|
D|-8----------|---8-------|-2--2-2-2--8-------2--2-2-2--|
A|------------|-----------|-3--3-3-3----------3--3-3-3--|
E|---repeat---|-----------|-----------------------------|

   F major          G minor             C major           D#maj D maj
e|-1-1-1-1-1-1-1/3--3--3-3-3------------0--0-0-0------------6-----5--|
B|-1-1-1-1-1-1-1/3--3--3-3-3------6-----1--1-1-1------6-----8-----7--|
G|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2/3--3--3-3-3---------0--0--0-0-0---------0--8-----7--|
D|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3/5--5--5-5-5----8-------2--2-2-2----8-------8-----7--|
A|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3/5--5--5-5-5------------3--3-3-3------------6-----5--|
E|-1-1-1-1-1-1-1/3--3--3-3-3-----------------------------------------|

The rest just repeats. You should be able to work out order of the
solo chords they're just the same ones, Gminor, Cmaj, Fmaj, D#maj, 
Dmaj, but arranged differently. In the part of the solo that is an
instrumental of the "You were caught in the crossfire..." bit the 
chords are as follows I think.
                          
e|-3  e|-3  e|-3  e|-0    |    e|-4  e|-5  e|-6  e|-1  e|-2
B|-3  B|-3  B|-3  B|-1    |    B|-4  B|-5  B|-6  B|-3  B|-1
G|-3  G|-3  G|-3  G|-0    |    G|-4  G|-6  G|-7  G|-2  G|-2
D|-5  D|-4  D|-3  D|-2    |    D|-6  D|-7  D|-8  D|-0  D|-0 
A|-5  A|-5  A|-5  A|-3    |    A|-6  A|-7  A|-8  A|--  A|--
E|-3  E|-3  E|-3  E|--    |    E|-4  E|-5  E|-6  E|--  E|--

2ND KEYBOARD SOLO

Just strum these chords along with the solo.

e|-3     e|-3  	 e|-3  	 e|-6    e|-5   e|-3	e|-3	e|-3	e|--
B|-3     B|-4	 B|-3	 B|-8    B|-7   B|-3	B|-4	B|-3	B|-6	
G|-3     G|-5	 G|-3	 G|-8    G|-7   G|-3	G|-5	G|-3	G|-5
D|-5     D|-5	 D|-5	 D|-8    D|-7   D|-5	D|-5	D|-5	D|-4
A|-5     A|-3	 A|-5	 A|-6    A|-5   A|-5	A|-3	A|-5	A|-5
E|-3     E|--	 E|-3	 E|--    E|--   E|-3	E|--	E|-3	E|--
                        |____________|                             
                           play twice
                          
VERSE & CHORUS

This is the only other real bit of the song you'll 
wanna strum and sing to so...

"Remember when you young..."

G minor: e|-3       G minor barre: e|-3
         B|-3                      B|-3
         G|-0   or                 G|-3
         D|-0                      D|-5
         A|-1                      A|-5
         E|-3                      E|-3

"You shone like the sun..."

F#major: e|-2
	 B|-2
	 G|-3
	 D|-4
	 A|-4
 	 E|-2

"Shine on you crazy diamond..."

e|-6----------3--1--1--|
B|-8---8------4--3--1--|
G|-8---8------5--3--2--|
D|-8---8------5--3--3--|
A|-6---5------3--1--3--|
E|------------------1--|
