"Syncopated Clock" was composed by Leroy Anderson, an American composer of short, light orchestral pieces. He's probably most famous for this piece and "Sleigh Ride". The arrangement of the main theme and the first bridge is my own. The second bridge was arranged by my husband, brilliantly putting the melody in the treble while the main theme is played in the bass. You can find orchestras, as well as piano, playing this on YouTube, but to my knowledge this is the only guitar arrangement. Sorry, but there is no tab for it....it's all in my head! Thanks to Tommy Emmanuel for encouraging me to refine my walking bass arrangement! This is in no means meant as any copyright infringement.
My guitar is the Maton EBG808 Artist.

@Elwood2911 I agree 100%!! Though I do put hard work into it, my gift of music comes from my dad (talented uke & piano) and God!

@Elwood2911 Thanks so much! It always brightens my day to know people enjoy what I play! I, too, much prefer acoustic guitar to any music that makes my ears bleed!!

You are absolutely correct and I am absolutely wrong. Anderson is American,100%. I was confusing him (again) with Percy Faith, who was born in Toronto. As I said, an individual's talents are God-given and really bear no reflection on their birthplace.

I neglected to mention that I did enjoy your rendition of Anderson's Syncopated Clock ... well executed on the acoustic guitar and a welcome change from having one's brain pierced by over driven electric whatevers.
