Walking In Your Footsteps (Live)


Tabbed by Ian Wakeham and Malav Trivedi

Because the bass - if there is one - on the Synchronicity album recording is impossible 
to distinguish, the tab that follows is a transcription of what Sting plays in the 
Synchronicity concert video instead. It appears to be a close approximation of what 
is played by one of the percussion instruments on the album version. If you really 
want to play the song off the record, just play this chorus over and over. 


For the verses Sting plays a very unadventurous line:



G---------------------------------------------*
D---------------------------------------------*
A--------5--5------5--5------5--5------5--5---*
E---------------------------------------------*



During the chorus it livens-up considerably:



G-------------2--4--5--4--2--4-------*
D------------------------------------*
A------5--5--------------------------* Repeat as necessary
E------------------------------------*



Peppered throughout the song are combinations 

of little fills and variations such as:



G-------------------------------|    G---------------------|
D-----------------------4-------| or D---------------------|
A--------5--5--------5-----5----|    A----5--5----3--5--5--|
E-------------------------------|    E---------------------|



and also:



G------------------------------------------------|
D---------4--------------------------------4-----|
A-------5---5------------3--3--3--3--5---5---5---|
E------------------------------------------------|



and after the "Walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'..." bit (played very fast):



G---------------5--7--------5--5--7--7-----|
D------------7--------5--5-----------------|
A------5--5--------------------------------|
E------------------------------------------|
