This is a tune I have always wanted to be able to play but have only just foun a tab and worked it out.


.


I'm quite pleased with it and have even managed to overdub a bit of harmony :^)

You know I don't think I ever looked at a tab in my life but wouldn't mind that one if you could email it and tell me how to read it. Thanks. d dennis74@me.com

how annying is this
I got the tab from
http://www.harptabs.com/songlist.php?DisplayBy=&MaxFields=10905 [it takes a while to load that page] row 6147 and then retyped it starting on a 5 hole draw but don't seem to have saved it. :^(
as noted in the other thread, the tab gives no idea of speed, dynamic, phrasing etc, so listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGORPUzLxtU

retyped
nb
- = draw
the notes with * are with the button pressed on the chromatic.
