Swansong - Be Bop Deluxe

Tabbed by: axe victim

Epic track from the 'Futurama' album. A bit of a weird one this, as
the guitar parts are lines and melodies rather than chords, but it makes
a nice change from the usual riffery.
Apparently much of this material was written on piano which would
explain the unusual ( for guitar ) key of F.
I reckon a capo at the first fret would be handy so you could
play the open E and A strings for those piano 'pedal' parts. You could
also transpose the key to E quite easily but I prefer to play without
doing either of these, so that's how I've tabbed it. I hope you enjoy it.

Then follows a reversed guitar solo, I haven't tried to tab it yet
as I tend to think of it more as an effect than a guitar part.
The nice piano chords are tabbed below.
