The melody of Year Of The Cat by Al Stewart runs 206 notes across 31 bars, 3:07 long in Em at 100 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.
