Has anyone worked on A Rose By Any Name? In addition to the link from Hogorj, you can listen to and download the song from Blondie's website:

I think A Rose By Any Name (the live version that Hugorj linked to) is in D minor. See if you like this for A Rose By Any Name (live version):

Tabs:

Intro
G:|--------|--------|--------|--------|
D:|--------|--------|--------|--------|
A:|5-5-5-5-|--------|--------|5-5-5-5-|
E:|--------|5-5-5-5-|3-3-3-3-|--------|
   + + + +  + + + +  + + + +  + + + +

Verse       x4
G:||-7-7-7-7|-10-10----||--------|--------|
D:||--------|----------||--------|--------|
A:||5-5-5-5-|8--8---8-8||5-5-5-5-|5-5-5-R-|
E:||--------|------6-6-||--------|--------|
    + + + +  +  +  + +   + + + +  + + + +

Chorus               x2
G:||--------|--------|--------|--------||--------|--------|--------|--------|
D:||--------|--------|--------|--------||--------|--------|--------|--------|
A:||55555555|--------|--------|55555555||55555555|--------|--------|5555555!|
E:||--------|55555555|33333333|--------||--------|55555555|33333333|--------|

Sid I played your version 6 times, that's perfect. But I missed of break part at 2'42“ (live version) or 2'00” (album version).

Your interpretation is great!

Thanks for checking the tab, Hugorj. This is a good song for me to practice with as I have difficulty moving from the F octave bounces to the Bb octave bounces and keeping the beat on time.

After the intro, first verse and first chorus, there's another verse and chorus. The second verse has a slightly different ending:

Tabs:

Verse Reprise  x4
G:||-7-7-7-7|-10-10----||--------|--------|--------|
D:||--------|----------||--------|--------|--------|
A:||5-5-5-5-|8--8---8-8||5-5-5-5-|5-5-5-5-|5!--R---|
E:||--------|------6-6-||--------|--------|--------|

Chorus               x2
G:||--------|--------|--------|--------||--------|--------|--------|--------|
D:||--------|--------|--------|--------||--------|--------|--------|--------|
A:||55555555|--------|--------|55555555||55555555|--------|--------|5555555!|
E:||--------|55555555|33333333|--------||--------|55555555|33333333|--------|

Next comes the solo section (about 2:00 to 2:40 in the live version) and it sounds difficult to tab. I have not worked on this section yet. I will post it when I get something so it can be checked. If you or someone else wishes to, you are welcome to work on the tab for the solo. (I have little free time and am trying to tab In A Lonely Place by New Order, Land by Duran Duran, Free by Graffiti6, Home by Lene Lovich, and this song.)
Cheers.
