The melody of Someone Saved My Life Tonight by Elton John runs 449 notes across 39 bars, 4:53 long in G at 68 beats per minute. The tab sits almost entirely in the first two frets, one note at a time — no chords to barre and no strumming pattern to keep up with. A piano backing track plays the chords and bass underneath, so the line you are learning sounds like the record even at half speed.
