Combined Guitar Chords and Harmonica Tabs

Newbie here, I searched the forum but couldn’t find any pre-existing posts specifically on this topic, so here goes… I have played guitar for 20+ years, but recently decided to take on the ukulele and the harmonica too. Being a beginner, I find it challenging to think about the chords for the guitar/ukulele and the tab for the harmonica at the same time.

To help me, I created some tabs that combine both the chords and the harp tabs, for example, this is an excerpt of one for ‘Somewhere over the Rainbow’.

(It’s not an exact science as sometimes there isn’t enough space to put both the guitar chords and the harmonica tab in the right place).

Two questions:

  1. Does this kind of combined notation already exist somewhere? If so, where could I find it?
  2. If it doesn’t exist, is this type of thing you would find useful if I were to create and share more? (Or once you pass the beginner stage, maybe you don’t really need it any more as your brain learns to process both instruments at the same time).

Thanks!

I’ve never seen it

Welcome to the forum @romado33 !

Yes I’ve seen the Ohio-based teacher @AdamWest make charts like that. I’m not sure how many he’s got, but he’s a great guy and very passionate about the harmonica. Hopefully you guys can connect!
