Raquel Guitar Tablature
Bau "Raquel" from the album "Top d'Coroa" from 1993
Tabbed by Board (Anders Pedersen): [email protected]

I think this song is played on 10 string guitars and/or that cavaquinho that Bau also
plays.

p = pull-off
: = repeat between the two : signs.
/ = slide up


The riff that lies beneath the other guitar:

Riff A:
 Dm        Bm6       Am7
|1--1-11---4--4-44---3--3-33---3--3-33---|
|3--3-33---3--3-33---1--1-11---1--1-11---|
|2--2-22---1--1-11---2--2-22---2--2-22---|
|0--0-00---0--0-00---2--2-22---2--2-22---|
|----------2--2-22---0--0-00---0--0-00---|
|----------------------------------------|
The guitar comes in at the Am7 the first time.

Whenever Riff A is repeated throughout the song the chords above are picked instead,
Like this:
|------1-------------4--------------3----
|----3---3---------3---3----------1---1--
|--2-------2-----1-------1------2-------- etc.
|0-----------0----------------2----------
|--------------2------------0------------
|----------------------------------------

Second guitar:
Riff A1                             _______  ____________
				   |1., 3.  |2., 4.
|-------------|--p-------------------5-7-8--| -----------|
|-----------5-|-8-6-----6-3---5----5--------| 5-3--------|
|---2---5-----|-------------2---------------| ----4---2--|
|2------------|-----------------------------| ------2----|
|-------------|-----------------------------| -----------|
|-------------|-----------------------------| -----------|
First guitar picks Riff A when Riff A1 is played

Then this comes (actually on the fourth ending of the above riff)

Riff B:

|8-7-8-7-5-------5-8-7------7-5-7-5-4-------4-7-5----|
|----------5---5----------------------5---5----------|
|.-----------5--------------------------7-----------.|
|.--------------------------------------------------.|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
First guitar picks Riff A


Riff C:
I think the other guitar plays the same for the first half, then these chords:
                                     F     E                                     C
|----------------------------------------------------------5-5/8--7--4---------------|
|------------6--10-8---5-----------------------------3--5---------------6--5---------|
|.--------7---------------6-----------------------4---------------------------7--5--.|
|.--5--8---------------------8--7--5-----------6------------------------------------.|
|7------------------------------------8-----7----------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|


Play Riff B+A1 a total of 2X
Play Riff C a total of 2X
Play Riff A+A1 a total of 4X

Then comes a solo, which I'm too lousy (and lazy) to catch anything from, but this:
|-----------------------------------
|------9--9-9-9-9-9-8-8-8-8-8-8-----
|7----------------------------------
|-----------------------------------
|-----------------------------------
|-----------------------------------

Riff A is picked beneath the solo
Play Riff C a total of 2X
Play Riff A+A1 until fade (with soloing on top, which I'm too lousy to catch as well)
