HOWDY FOLKS YET ANOTHER TOP QUALITY TAB  
from TIN MAN  

I Cant believe this hasnt been posted till now, but yet again im extremely honoured to present yet another of Stevie's Harp work

Again this isn't a tab of the song its the Tab of Stevie's solo at 2:47 in the song
to make it easier for you folks to learn ive broken it down by the riffs and the pauses in the solo so that you know where you are and going to.

without further adieu here it is 

NOTE* when you see < it means play the hole with THE SLIDE BAR PRESSED
IN.   

when you see notes in brackets its one of stevie's trademark trills  
(basically three or more notes played rapidly by pushing in and
releasing the bar rapidly)   

This tab is dedicated to AUSSIE a.k.a (Mr Harp Bible) who further ignited my passion for Stevie and was/is instrumental in helping me hunt down his entire discography   

ENJOY BUDDY!!  

(a note and option for beginners)
the first riff in the solo has a trill, if you are unable to play it (yet) you can instead play
4+5,-4,4+5,-4,-3 


02:47

4+5,-4,4+5,(-4,<-4,-4)-3
