Bridge Over Troubled Water

Good arrangement of the music recollecting the song as it was recorded by Simon and Garfunkle. I have been playing guitar for 4 years and found this song to be challenging but not too difficult. I recommend it highly.

Bridge Over Troubled Water

A reasonably accurate arrangement, but lacking some of the depth and grandeur of the original sheet music.

Bridge Over Troubled Water

When Simon & Garfunkel released this album, it won a Grammy award (on the strength of this classic song); at their acceptance speech, Paul Simon said he wanted to thank Stevie Wonder for having an "off" year (Wonder had won the award the previous two years). This is a wonderful classic blues/gospel song, full of beautiful melodies and chords and great lyrics, as well (for those blessed with a high range voice to be able to sing all the high notes in this song). This song has very wide appeal and is wealth worth learning to play well.
