I am looking for the guitar chords, even better the tablatures, for the song The Seagull by Jean Riondet and G. Amiot. It’s a sea shanty.

    Hello,

    You have a search engine, so we can't really do much more than you can in searching as well, on principle. For this type of question and without any form of politeness, it doesn't exactly inspire one to search on your behalf this time!

    Happy searching and best wishes to you.

    Hello, first you can find the video of this song on YouTube. If you look closely, you can even see the chords that the guitarist plays. The rhythm is 6/8 or possibly 3/4 but at a fairly fast tempo (140 -160?)

    So the chords are essentially A minor and G repeated, then A minor, G, F, C.

    I also found the piano sheet music, here's the link https://fr.scribd.com/document/519564954/11-M-C-La-mouette but I see that you are a guitarist. By the way, do you know how to transpose? Unless you are using a capo. In terms of degrees, C = I, D minor = II minor, etc. So the first 2 chords are VI minor and V for the key of C major.

    I highly recommend that you learn to read at least the treble clef. From there, you will be able to deduce the chords at sight

    I am available for any questions
