Starálfur Guitar Tablature
If you want to play along with this track, tune your guitar
to the cd. 

(I will write the chords as normal chords, but they're 
actually a half-note (cirka) up)



Intro:


|e--0----------0----0----2---|
|B--0----------0----0----3---|
|G--4----------2----4----2---|
|D--2----------0----2----0---| 
|A--4----------2----4--------|  
|E--0----------0----0--------|

Now the song starts and the orchestra kicks in. The chords 
changes between A and D. The guitar melody is based on 
these notes:

|e------17-|
|B----15---|  I haven't found a rythm pattern so just do as you like.
|G--14-----|  


A             D           
blá nótt yfir himininn
A             D
blá nótt yfir mér
A              D                     A
horf-inn út um glugann minn með hendur
              D        A
faldar undir kinn
       G             D   A    D
hugsum daginn minn í dag og í gær

A             D
blá nóttfötin klæða mig i,
A           D
beint upp i rúm
A            D 
breiði mjúku sængina 
A    D         A
loka augunum
       G             D     A
ég fel hausinn undir væng

Refrain:

Bm Bm/A A   G         A7 D   D/C#
starir  á   mig lítill álfur
Bm Bm/A A  G              A7  D
hleypur að mer en hreyfist ekki
   A      G       A      
ur stað - sjalfur
G                 D
     starálfur

Back to the intro over |-A-|-D-| and the guitar melody
A     D
Opna augun stírurnar úr
A            D 
trygi mig og tel (hvort ég sé ekki)
A               D
kommin aftur og alltalltilæ 
A               D         A
samt ventar eitthvað
        G      D
eins og alla veggina

The instrumental interplay:

| A | A | D | D/C# | Bm | Bm/A | G | D/F# | E | 

| A | D | D | A | A | 

Then the orchestra plays the refrain chords, + a little tail (?)
Guitar plays (again): | A | G | A | G | D |
