"Cry Me A River" Barney Kessel/ Julie London (I need help..!)

[Mace]

Hello everybody, I want to play "Cry me a river" with friend of mine (singer), and I try to figure out what Mr. Kessel played on the legendary recording - especially the intro, because its so memorable - but I can't get it done.. So I wanted to ask you if you have any suggestions, hints, tabs, notes, tips or anythink else for me to master this classic piece of music thank you very much!

thank you very much!! did you wrote this down? it sounds great but i cant make the first interval (or em9 chord) sound like the one on the record.. sound a little different on the LP. is the Eb+ Chord an augemented chord? thank you so much for your help!!! btw: this guy played it perfectly on a acoustic guitar. but no tabs and i cant figure out the first chords.. hmm..

No- it wasn't me--but somebody on here gave me this tab, I'm sure. Are you sure you are not hearing the bass guitar on the record---that makes a lot of difference--the bass note.

I believe there should also be a "G" added to the first chord played on the 3rd string, 12th fret. A little stretch but worth it.
