1923

1923 is a Yellowstone origin story, where the Duttons face challenges to the ranch, in the early 20th century. I particularly like the character of Spencer — a WW1 soldier suffering from PTSD who’s biding time as ‘man-eater’ hunter in Africa. Kind of like Michael Douglas’s character in The Ghost and the Darkness.

It’s especially nice to see actor, Jerome Flynn, as Banner Creighton; the Scottish shepherd feuding with Jacob Dutton. You might remember him as ‘Bronn, the sell-sword’ in Game of Thrones.

Brian Tyler’s extraordinary music narrates the Yellowstone Universe. I love how he ties in the hook of the Yellowstone theme at the end of 1923’s opening titles.

This guitar tab is beautifully written across a single page. The theme is under a minute long, so I think it’s a great piece for beginner and intermediate guitar players to get into something that sounds sophisticated, but isn’t that difficult to play.

Enjoy, the guitar tab is available below:

My structure goes like this:

Verse 2x, End

That’s it. Pretty simple.

This piece is played one whole step down (from low to high): D G C F A D. However, you can just as easily play it in standard tuning, E A D G B E. It sounds great either way.
