Nightwish – The Islander tab
Chords:
The islander Nightwish Track 10 From the Album: Dark Passion Play (2007) Music & Lyrics: Marco Hietala Tabbed by: Mariano Arnaiz Anything to: marianoarnaiz@hotmail.com Tunning: 1 & 1/2 Step down On acoustic guitar with metal strings, Use a pick (folk guitar) So. This song has been in my mind for a while and i learned it like all of us from the tabs. But the licks and chords they didnÂ’t feel right. There was some mandolin kind of thin on guitar But i just guess it was the 2 guitars and the piano and all that sh*t. I saw a video in internet From a dude that recorded Marco playing ut live, i had the chance to see a little bit i figure out From there the tuning and fact that the guitar lick has a top line and a bottom line in high strings. It aint that hard but it takes time.
