Subject: Tab: Harem Scarem
Tabed by: Mauricio Galeano

"Harem scarem" taken from the album Hamburger Concerto, written by Thijs van Leer
with an approximate Time of 5 minutes 52 seconds, performed by the sensacional group
FOCUS

C'mon, let's go

Intro and verse:


e-----------------------------------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------------------------|
D--------4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-------4-4-4---------4-4-4------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------------------|
E-1-1-1-1---------------------1-1-1-------1-1-1-------------------|


During the verse Akkerman plays the same Fill as the Intro, or you
can play Fmmaj7


After repeating the verse he plays some chords that I haven't got the name yet
But I'll tab them:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/focus/harem_scarem_tab.html ]
e-----16---14---12------------------------------------------------|
B-----15---13---11------------------------------------------------|
G-----14---12---10------------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------------------------|
A-----------------------------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------------------------|


Then he comes back to the main riff but after the verse he plays this instead
of the last the chords

|C#-D#-F-F#-G#-A#-C|(VERY QUICKLY)


He stays in C but he comes back soon to Fmmaj7

Then he repeates all what we have done but instead of staying in C
he plays this riff with a different rhythm on drums

e-------------------------------------------------------------|
B-------------------------------------------------------------|
G-------------------1-----------------------------------------|
D----------------------3---1--3-------------------------------|  x3
A------0--0---2--3--------------------------------------------|
E-1-1---------------------------------------------------------|

THE SAME RIFF 1 TONE UP
ALSO 3 TIMES

And here comes the solo:

e--9-------------------9--------------------------------------------------------------------
B----10-------------------10-----------------------14--14---16--16--------------------------
G------11--11/13-------------11-11/13----11/13/15-------------------11 11-----11-11--13--11-
D----------------11--------------------------------------------------------13---------------
A-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He repeates all of this again and imrovises on the pentatonic Fm scale
