Song:Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24 Artist:Trans-Siberian Orchestra Album:Christmas Eve and Other Stories Tabbed by J. Campbell Standard tuning A couple of friends and I were learning this song together last Christmas (they both play guitar and I play bass). In short order, I found that there's not a whole lot of actual bass in this song. So I also tabbed out some other parts where a bass could fill in, you know, if you don't have an orchestra at your disposal. Anyway. Intro This part is played by a cello on the album. G|-----4-4-------------------4-| D|---------7-5-4-------4-5-7---| A|-5-7-----------7-5-7---------| E|-----------------------------| (0:17) This part is a round, played by a flute and a cello, a total of four times. G|-----4-4-------------| D|---------7-5-4-------| A|-5-7-----------7-5-7-| E|---------------------| (0:33) Through the crescendo, just keep hitting an E - the one on the A string (fret 7) sounds best. On the album version it's just one time per measure, but I found that a "1, 1 2 3 4" pattern sounds cool too. (1:04) This is the only real bass in the song. G|--------------------------------------9-9-9-9----|---|----------|-------| D|-----------------------10-10-10-12-10---------9~-|-9-|-9--9--9--|-9-9-9-| A|-7-7-7-9-9-10-10-12-10---------------------------|---|----------|-------| E|-------------------------------------------------|---|----------|-------| (1:15) A piano plays this part. Low notes though. Ripe for usurping. 4x G|-------------------------| D|-------------------------| A|-7-5-3-3-2-0-2-0---------| E|-----------------3-3-2-0-| (1:47) After that, there's a piano interlude. In the background there's some synth-sounding string thing going on, which sounds okay on bass. If you need something to do. G|-9-7------|---4---4---4---4-| D|-----10-9-|-5---5---5---5---| A|----------|-----------------| E|----------|-----------------| (1:57) Immediately following that, go back to the E. (2:21) G|--------------------------------------9-9-9-9----|---| D|-----------------------10-10-10-12-10---------9~-|-9-| A|-7-7-7-9-9-10-10-12-10---------------------------|---| E|-------------------------------------------------|---| (2:29) 1x 5x G|-----------| G|-----------| D|-----------| Rest one D|-----------| A|-10-9-10-7-| measure. A|-10-9-10-7-| E|-----------| E|-----------| (2:36) G|--------------------------------------9-9-9-9----|---|----------|-------| D|-----------------------10-10-10-12-10---------9~-|-9-|-9--9--9--|-9-9-9-| A|-7-7-7-9-9-10-10-12-10---------------------------|---|----------|-------| E|-------------------------------------------------|---|----------|-------| (2:48) G|---------|---------| D|---------|---------| A|-7-5-----|-7-5-----| E|-----8-7-|-----8-7-| (2:56) Resume playing the trusty old E in the same pattern until about 3:04, where you just play on the strike notes with the guitar.
