Bert Jansch – Blackbird In The Morning tab

Tabbed by Jamie Phillips (jamiephillips22@hotmail.com)

Artist: Bert Jansch
Track title: Blackbird in the Morning
Album: From the Outside
Tuning: EADGBE

This tune is played with a dotted 8th feel. As usual, Bert displays a little variation
here and there so listen to the recording if you want to get it down note for note. I
have divided the tab into 2 sections; verse and chorus. The sections are repeated as on the record.

3/4 time
