"Heaven" by Los Lonely Boys
Tabbed by Roger Luna 5/17/04
email rluna at mckenna.org


Here's the way I play this song. I'm sure it's not 100% accurate
but it's close enough. I couldn't find this posted with the
leads anywhere so I decided to take a stab at it. The chords used during the
verses are correct (F#Maj and G#min in standard tuning), but it's impossible for
me to tab out the rhythm as to when and how often you strum them. Listen to the
song to get that timing down. I tried to tab it out as best as I could, and it
makes sense to me, but that isn't saying a whole lot :) Guitar II changes up
a little throughout the song, so keep an ear out for that as well.


Enjoy!

Nice job. A really hard song to tab, but you did a great job.
-mystikal1116 | 5/19/2004
I think you did a fantastic job! This is the best tab I have seen on
it so far, especially how it maps out the entire song. Then again, I
probably have to say that because I'm your bass player. Either way I
think it's pretty darn accurate. What a meskin! Good job Rog.

-fathom66 | 5/29/2004
Well, I appreciate the feedback from everyone, positive and constructive.
This was my first ever tab posting, and I'm proud of it.
More so now since I found the actual real tab for it- read on...

Get the July 2004 issue of Guitar World Magazine. It has the
complete song tabbed out completely. Their tab wants you to tune
down 1/2 step, so all of their fret numberings are one fret higher
than mine because I play mine in standard tuning. (when you play it
live it doesn't matter if you don't tune down). I used notepad to
create my tab, so I left alot of it out, as you have to know
the 'feel' of this song and using notepad is a pain to create tabs
anyway.

Para todos los que hablan espanol, gracias por su apoyo y sus
palabras agradables. Me avente! Me avente!




-rogman | 6/9/2004
Hey Man! Nice Job on your tab. It sounds pretty close
to me but a hard song to tab. I only have problem with
the rhythm but I'll get it. Nice Work. This song will
keep my busy for awhile. pEaCe OuT!!
-Night_Breeze | 6/29/2004
does anyone know what kind of effects are used on the lead guitar?

-TGcountry | 7/2/2004
Great song, great tab
-BlackFire411VM | 7/22/2004
Great job man. On Austin City Limits,
this is exactly how Henry plays its. Nice work.-Kyle
-Shelton45 | 9/18/2004
I think Henry uses a slight mixture of distortion
and wah effects. Try playing it with that
setting and it sounds pretty close.
-Shelton45 | 9/18/2004
ya the sound is pretty simple i belive u
turn ure tone down with slight dist.
sounds pretty good
-bobthebuilder | 9/22/2004
nice tab

-rustin | 11/4/2004
hey man im new to this sight and i cant believe
this was on here. i couldnt find it anywhere. nice job
-wow | 11/13/2004
Hey, joerock, CHILL! Do everyone a favor and please
learn how to spell. Your remarks are backfiring on you.
Instead of coming across as insults, they're really showing
everyone what a complete idiot you are. Thanks for the
laughs. Maybe you should put down your guitar every now
and then and read a dictionary. A refresher course in
4th grade grammar wouldn't hurt either.

Nowhere did I mention you need a capo for this song,
nor did I mention you have to tune down or use an augmented
tuning (congratulations on spelling the word 'augmented'
correctly, although I believe 'alternative' would be more
appropriate). Since you come across as being an expert
with tablatures feel free to create your own version and
share it with everyone here. Better yet, do what I did.
Learn the song on your own, without using anyone else's tabs,
write down the tab the way you interpret it, and share it.
I mean, since it's "a simple jazz riff with a blues tones",
that should pose no problem for you. You are, after all,
the tab master and obviously much smarter than everyone
else here. So I'm telling you to be a man- put up or
shut up. Until you do so keep your comments to your
STIPUD, DUM AS* self.

STIPUD DUM AS*
-rogman | 12/2/2004
Well,Rog.don't wory About Stoopid dum AS* he don't
Know what the fuc* he's talking about.
I think the tab was excellent.Thanks.
-kw1 | 12/24/2004
Nice tab Rogman, and don't let ass*holes get to ya. Not
to let you guys get a shot at us old guys, but the song
structure is not new to us. It is an old time blues/jazz
lead in for a lot of songs. Just nicely done with a
different struming mixed in. BTW, it's major.
-Fess | 1/1/2005
sweat

-rafaelramirez05 | 1/18/2005
Try playing this song in standard E tuning. That would
be in f#major.It helps you learn the fret board.
Solo the song in E flat blues scale with a touch
of the f# major.It makes the song sound happy.
Good luck!! My mistake It's Already in F#
