  59th Street Bridge Song (also Feelin' Groovy) - Simon and Garfunkle

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Joshua J
Email: [email protected]

Tuning: Standard tuning
Capo: 1st Fret
Key: D#

The fingering shown here assumes NO CAPO IS USED. But Simon and 
Garfunkle appear to use this fingering (as best I can figure out from a CD) 
capoed on the 1st fret.

I know no one will believe me but I figured this out by ear. In other words
it isn't perfect, but its sure is stinkin' close!

Intro:

  D   A       Dsus2 A/C#*   D/A   A     Dsus2 A
e|-2---0-----------0-------------2-0---------0-------|
B|-------2-----3-----2*------3-------2---3-----2---2-|
G|---------2-----2-----2---2---2-------2---2-----2---|
D|-0---2-------0---------2---4---4-2-----0-----------|
A|-------------------40*----------------------0-----|
E|---------------------------------------------------|
*Ok this is hard, bar the A chord with your index fingering (you 
won't play high E string) and put your ring finger on the fourth 
fret of the A string. Pluck the B and A strings and slide your 
ring finger to make the bass note "slide" down and carefully lift 
that finger to let the A string ring freely. All this WHILE you 
continue to play the next three notes  This particular sliding 
bass is used throughout the entire song wherever this A/C# is played.

  D/F#    A       Dsus2 A/C#*   D/F#  A     Dsus2 
e|-----2---0-----------0-------------2-0---------0-9-------------------------|
B|-3---------2-----3-----2-------3-------2---3-------10b115-----------------|
G|---2---------2-----2-----2---2---2-------2---2-----------------------------|
D|-4---4---2-------0---------2---4---4-2-----0-----7+*-----------------------|
A|-----------------------40-------------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------0h2-2/5-5/7-7/9-|
*Harmonic on seventh fret at the same time you play the 9th fret on 
the high e string, sounds really cool

Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobble stones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy.

Ba da, Ba da, Ba da, Ba da...Feelin' Groovy. 

Hello lamp-post,
What cha knowin'?
I've come to watch your flowers growin'.
Ain't cha got no rhymes for me?
Doot-in' doo-doo,
Feelin' groovy.

I've got no deeds to do,
No promises to keep.
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep.
Let the morning time drop all its petals on me.
Life, I love you,
All is groovy.
