Bridge Over Troubled Water free Harmonica Tabs & Lesson

Hello! In today's harmonica lesson we're learning to play Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel. The lesson uses a C diatonic harmonica, and there is one overblow in the tab so great practice for anyone learning to overblow. You can replace that one note with a different one if you can't overblow, as explained in the video.

Here are the harp tabs:

-5 -5 5 -4 4 -5 6 5

When you’re weary-y, feeling small

-6 6* -6 6 7 -6

When tears are in your eyes

-6 -6 6 5 -4 4 (7)

I will dry the-em all

5 -4 4 -4 6

I’m on your side, oh

6 5 -4 4 4 -4 5

When ti-imes get ro-ou-ough

6 8 -8 7 -8 -8

And friends just cant be found

8 -8 7 -7 -6 -6 6 5 6

Like a bridge over troubled water

-6 7 -8 8 7

I will lay me down

8 -8 7 -7 -6 -6 6 5 6

Like a bridge over troubled water

-6 7 -8 8 7

I will lay me down

Thanks for studying with me today. I hope you enjoyed learning this song!
