--- Comments ---
G many years after I first listened to this song and I still can't
describe how wonderful it is to me. As I can't play the piano, I did my
best to transcribe it's chords, so I could play it on my guitar. You should
try to play it using nylon strings (wich sound sweeter than steel strings)
using traditional tunning (eBGDAE).
IMHO Orinoco Flow is quite easy to play - only five basic chords, no
dissonances, no inversions - the secret is Enya's transcendental voice. It
looks like she can turn any stupid G F C sequence into the most exquisite,
angelic, ethereal, and complex song.
Tip 1: You can try Bbm (X13321) instead of Bb It won't sound exactly like
the recorded song, but it's easier to go back from Cm to Bbm.
Tip 2: If you're in a bad day, turn your amp on, plug in your eletric
guitar (don't forget to overdrive it) and play all the song, until you get
a "zooooom!" noise in your ears.

Also, I'm trying to "feel" how Caribbean Blue goes and transcribe it too.
