(this is originaly a DOS file)

Here is my transcription of "Wonderous Stories" by YES.
This great song comes from the Album "Going for the One".
It has been transposed here 2 whole steps down and is now in the key of "C".
(It's hard to sing as high as Jon Anderson.)
It is originally written in the key of "E".
