Harry Nilsson takes you back . . . But doesn't mention Christmas in the lyric!

7*     -8 7* 7    -9* -9*
Long a-go, far  a-   way,

-6*  -8   -6*     -6     -9*   -9*
life was clear; close your eyes...


"Re-mem-ber" is  a   place from long a - go;
-4    -6*     7*  -4 -4 *4      -4     -4     -4 -4

"Re-mem-ber", filled with ev'-ry-thing you know.
-4    -7     -7       -4      -4     *4 -4 -4      -4     -4

Re-mem-ber, when you're sad and feel-in’ down;
-4  7*     -7     -4      -4        *4  -4    -4   -4   -4

Re-mem-ber, turn a - round.
-4  -6*    7*    5*   -4 -4


Re-mem-ber, life is  just a  mem-o-ry.
-4 -6*     7*   -4  -4 *4  -4 -4     -4 -4

Re-mem-ber, close your eyes and you can see.
-8  7*    -7     -4       -4     *4    -4    -4    -4  -4

Re-mem-ber, think of all that life can be;
-4  7*     -7     -4      -4 *4 -4    -4   -4  -4

Re-mem-ber.
-4  -6*    7*


Dream, love is on-ly  in a dream;
-8         6      6 -6* 6  6 6 6

Re-mem-ber.
6   -8      *8

Re  -mem-ber, life  is   nev-er    as   it   seems;
-6* -8*    9*   -6* -6* 7*   -6* -6* -6* -6*

dream...
-9* 10 -9* 10 -10* 11* -10* 11* -10* 10 -10* 10

Remember, your task is to make this sound as legato as possible--not easy, as it's in E.
I find that it's easier to do that on a bebop tuned horn, using the Bb blow note with the button helps you keep the button in on much of this tune.
Also, this is better in the lower octave available on a tenor or a 14 or 16 hole instrument.
Dream . . .

 Great job Gary, the site has been down for me since early this morning, or would have replied quicker. This is another melting little song, on one of the few 'Harry' albums i DON'T have, so very much appreciated, how you get those curly falsetto notes tabbed so easily(?) defeats me. It really is a touching little song , some one said on the video comments words to the effect, ' beautiful song , but i can only listen when feeling brave '     :'(     :).
           Had a quick go, this may turn out VERY nice, there is scope for individual interpretation and a few flourishes, there is another song somewhere in a crevice, ( can't get it out), that i distantly hear blending with this one.
             Your asterisks were a bit drunk Gary or............  :)

                                                                                        jh.

Jimmy Halfnote:

 Just thought of the other song, i may try together with ;
