Goin back

For me, this is the memorable Dusty Springfield song of the sixties. Key sig; A, 4/4 time. Tabbed to play on any key Harmonica. nb 2 verses here, one slightly different to the other. Tab numbers respond to words but here and there extra number applies to 2nd verse, and vice versa you will have to apply a little dedication to get it right.
