From Billy Joel's 1977 album "The Stranger" this song is arranged for chromatic mountain dulcimer in 1-5-8 or DAD tuning. It requires a 1 fret and 0 fret.

Challenging for the intermediate level player due to its large number of notes and mixed meter time signature. A solid knowledge of tab reading, three finger chords, and chord-melody style of playing will be needed.

Four pages. Tablature, lyrics and guitar accompaniment chords are included.

The classic bossa nova tune lays beautifully and elegantly on a mountain dulcimer in FAC Tuning. (One of the 1-3-5 open chord tunings that broadens our chromatic possibilities on this normally diatonic instrument.) This is a Solo arrangement but could also become an ensemble piece by using the chord shapes as back-up while another player adds the melody in the Larger Bold tablature numbers.
