Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
So, here's my arrangement for this wonderful song. It is based on another version also
found here on this site. But I didn't feel alright with some chords of that version, so
I worked it out. I also added some tabs for the intro/outro and the licks in the chorus.
Enjoy it, correction and critics please mail to [email protected] !
NOTE: I saw on youtube that Billy plays the song live with capo on 3rd fret. Therefor
you have to transpose everything down 3 half steps. You can get this easily using the
transpose-function on the top of this site ;)
Well, said enough, here you go!
