Note: This file is garanteed without any influence of EMI song books, wich
are anyway totally useless to play that tune, due to their poor quality
adaptation & transcription (NEVER ever buy a keyboard arrangement of a
Floyd album, they're really mocking us. Choose the guitar tab one if
you need to and arrange it yourself!).
THE TRIAL
(Waters/Ezrin)
Pink Floyd
from The Wall 1979
Hi, fans!
Here is another Floyd tune, I'd like to explain one thing or two
(I always explain lots of things, perhaps a kind of justification?
SomeOne must have told me I were useless or somewhat in my childood)
1) It's stupid to try to play this tune without an orchestra! but
I guess I'm not the only stupid guy on heart, so Ok, play it
for example on a synth (strings are good, power strings are better).
I sometimes play it on organs, but I play it mainly on piano,
and that works pretty well! Some can try to play it with guitar/Bass
/Drums, It sure can do the job. I recently started to learn accordion,
you couldn't believe how nice it sounds on that thing!
2) What's that thing? Well, we all saw .CRD files with just chords
& lyrics, Ok, fine, but that's not enough here, 'cause strings are
playing a melody wich is different from the vocal one, I believe
that this part definitly IS the song, so I tried to indicate it here.
How does it works? It's quite simple: there's 3 lines
| Chords...
| strings melody & '|' is the bar line
| Lyrics
In melody:
n means nOPE, nO note, at least with the right hand, play 1st or 5th
with left hand instead.
- means Let ring.
+ means play this note an octave higher (all is played between F & E)
L.H. means that this prt of melody is played by left hand
3) How do I play it? It's pretty simple again (complicated things are
bothering me (except these explanations)):
the left hand is for the bass line:
alternate 1st & 5th of each chord + chromatics
the right hand is for the melody:
indicated notes + thumb playing any note of the actual chord,
1st mainly but it can be any.
Let's take a closer look at the beginning:
B Bb B B Bb B | B Bb B C B A G |
Right hand: - E E - E E | - E E E E |
-------------1-----2-----3-----4----|-1-----2-----3-----4-----|
Left hand: E B E B | E B E B |
Well, that's a simplification but you can see what I mean.
4) I've seen .CRDs with the tune in Fm, I've written it as Em, as it's
the way I'm playing it and it's much more floydian (think of WYWH,
Welcome.., Atom Heart Mother, ..Turning away,Pigs , among others).
If that bothers you, translate, retune your synth or put a capo on
your piano!

(Second verse, Only bars wich are differents from 1st verse are
indicated. Caution: Baa-aabe lines are notated one bar per line,
while everything else is two bars/line, that's because the
chromatics are twice as fast as any other part of the melody)
You little shit, you're in it now, I hope they thrown away the
key! You should have talked to me more often Than you did, but no: you
had to go your own way. Have you broken any homes up lately?

Why'd he ever have to leave me, Worm your honour let me take him home

There must have been a door there in the wall When I came in!
Crazy over the rainbow he is cra---zy
(3rd verse: just 4 bars repeated ad infinitum, I give you my own
coda, nothing interesting, it's just that you need to end at a

Someone more deserving the full penalty of law! The

Fills me with the urge to defecate

sentence you to be exposed before your peers!
Tear down the wall!

*: thumb played note, to hehance the melody. I do not play chords on
this part, I just play octaved (thumb and little finger) melody
(except those *-marked notes) with left hand, while the right one
plays it entirely. It goes like that:
E F# G E F# - G | E F# G E F# - G |
Right hand: B B B B B - - | B B B B B - - |
-------------1-----2-----3-----4----|-1-----2-----3-----4----|
Left hand: E F# G E F# - G | E F# G E F# - G |
E F# G E F# - G | E F# G E F# - G |
-------------1-----2-----3-----4----|-1-----2-----3-----4----|
A.Left hand: E B E B | E B E B |
Alternate left hand is what I play when I've no room (ie: Synth keyboard)
A note for mad keyboardists:
Be as mad as you want on melody, but let your left hand be that heavy,
that maketh the trip!
It's a pretty simple adaptation (I arranged it after one or two years
of self-learned piano), but it can be very powerful (I still play it
years later).
