I'd like to play Sleepwalk. Does anybody know the original key, and what tuning they used? A guitar player I know does it in Cm/Eb, but I'd like to be able to do a classic version. While we're at it, how about the chords? I know what I play, but I may have heard it wrong...

Thanks,

Matt

Matt; go to the "tablature" section and click the "search" at the top right and type in "Sleepwalk" and you will find plenty of what you want.
Oh and the tuning used was: C#m

From low to high:
E G# B C# E G# C# E

Here's a sample of what I did with a Band in a Box file. I wound up makin another style of my own by borrowin some rhythm from a midi file and usin Band in a Box to create a style from it. I actually like the style I made a little better than this one but they're both good enough to practice the song with. If anyone wants the rhythm track to practice with in mp3 format email me.Sleepwalk
