I have looked the internet for Pink Floyd's "Another brick in the walls part II" and all I could find was some guy's strange notation. i tried to understand it but with not much luck. I tried to write to the guy but his email is no longer active.

Could someone translate to tablature the following (its only 8 chords):

This is how the guy say it is:

+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+
5 x o o o o o 3 o o o o o o 1 o o o o o o 5 o o o o o o
+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+
6 | | | | o | 4 | | | o | | 2 | | | o | | 6 | | | | | |
+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+
7 | | o o | | 5 | o o | | | 3 | o o | | | 7 | o o | | |
+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+
Dm (V) G F Am

+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+
1 | | | | o | 10 o o o o o o 8 o o o o o o 1 o o o o o o
+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+
2 | | o | | | 11| | | | | | 9 | | | o | | 2 | | | | | |
+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+
3 | o | | | | 12| o o | | | 0 | o o | | | 3 | | o o o |
+-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+ +-+-+-+-+-+
C Dm (X) C (VIII) Bb

This is what i thought this guy meant, but there are some unplayable chords

e|-5--3----1--5----x--10----8---1-------------------------------------------
B|-6--3----1--5----1--10----8---3-------------------------------------------
G|-7--4----2--5----x--10----9---3-------------------------------------------
D|-7--5----3--7----2--12----10--3-------------------------------------------
A|-5--5----3--7----3--12----10--1-------------------------------------------
E|-x--3----1--5----x--10----8---1-------------------------------------------

Thanks for the help

??? What's unplayable???

I haven't heard the song, so I don't know if it's correct, but it's not unplayable.

You haven't heard "Another brick in the wall"? I thought everebody had, is the one that goes "We don't need no education" and then comes this 8 chords.

well the part that i don't know how toplay is the 5th chord:

e|-5--3----1--5----x--10----8---1-------------------------------------------
B|-6--3----1--5----1--10----8---3-------------------------------------------
G|-7--4----2--5----x--10----9---3-------------------------------------------
D|-7--5----3--7----2--12----10--3-------------------------------------------
A|-5--5----3--7----3--12----10--1-------------------------------------------
E|-x--3----1--5----x--10----8---1-------------------------------------------

How do you play x,3,2,x,1,x skipping the 3rd string semms impossible to me

Please explain. As you can see I am a total beginner and thanks for your answer

__________________

drop your pointer finger on the 1
drop your middle finger on the 2
ring finger on 3

it'll take a little practice to go on to the chord quickly at first, but its not a hard position for your hand to be in

__________________

you need to drop your 3rd finger so it lightly touches the string you want to skip then play all four strings

The thing with

x
1
x
2
3
x

Is my interpretation of this other guy's notation, but it seems that I was wrong.

The chord should be played with the 3rd string open instead of muted as i supposed in the beginning (at least that what I was told).

Thanks for the replies anyway. i know they will come in handy one day
