Tab Request - Hymn

1

Hey!

I’d like to request for a tab for the hymn “I Sing Praises to Your Name”. Could any badass around here help me out?

(I SING PRAISES TO YOUR NAME | Digital Songs & Hymns)

I’m very new to the harmonica - I’ve only started learning in the past 2 months, so I appreciate some grace and your help!

P.S. I own a diatonic in the key of C. It was a budget purchase for my 21st birthday :slight_smile:

Hey @Alan welcome to the forum! So you’ll have to play it in the key of C for now!

The problem with low, is you’ll need to be able to play the -3" which is an intermediate technique. First line as example:

4 -4 5 -4 4 -3 -3" 5 -4

So you’ll have to play it high. This will sound sweeter on a lower key harmonica (Like a G, or lower) and will also be easier to play on a lower key harmonica. This is good practice playing high notes though!

**7 -8 8 -8 7 -7 -6 8 -8 -8 **
-8 7 -7 -6 6 -8 7 7
-6 -7 7 7 7 7 -7 7 -8 8 -9 8 -8

Hope that helps. Rock on! :sunglasses:

Hey Luke!

Thanks for the tabs. It does help a lot!

I’ve been able to play clean individual notes with tongue-blocking, but still struggle in figuring out how to draw/blow bends. I do have follow up questions if you don’t mind…

  1. Will these high notes work on a lower key harmonica (like a G), or would they be different?
  2. Would you mind sharing the full version of the tab for the low one as well?

I’ve never been musically-inclined and harmonica is my first ever instrument. It really has been an experience knowing the possibilities, and also witnessing how the badass pros do it :smiley:

I appreciate your time, Luke!
