HOWDY FOLKS
YET ANOTHER TOP QUALITY TAB from TIN MAN!!
I extremely honoured to present yet another of Stevie's Harp Solo's
this isn't a tab of the song, its the Tab of Stevie's HARP BITS and solo's in the song.
This song is actually quite involved and if I throw it all at you at once you will be lost.
So to make it easy to learn and eventually play
along, this will be a TWO part tab. The first tab contains all the HARP FILLS and RIFFS that Stevie plays.
This second tab contains the Solo at 2:50 in the song and the OUTRO Solo starting at 4:12 that runs all the way to the end (including the very faint and faded bits at the end!)
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)
2:50
<-5,<7,<-7,<-7,<-7,<-7,<-7,-8,<-7,-8
(<8+9,8+9) <-7,8+9,<8+9,,-7,(<-8,<-8,-8)<-7,<7
<6,<7,<-7,<-7,<-7,<-8
<-7,<-7,<-7 hold,<7,<-6,-6,(-7,,-7,-7)7,-6,<-5
<-3,<-3,-3,3,-2,-2,1,1,<-3,-3,-3
OUTRO SOLO
So that you know where the actual outro starts from its after this at 4:12
<12,(12,<12,12) -9 <8+9,(8+9,<8+9,8+9)<-7,<7,
-6,<-5,<4+5,<4+5,<-3 <3,<1,<1,<-3,<-3,<-3,<-2,<-3
we know this because Stevie himself pauses for a beat before commencing, so thats where I have cut the final riff and started the outro. that riff is located in the first tab, so after you play that riff THEN begin whats below!
-11,(-11,<-11,-11)11,<10,<10,11,<8+9,(8+9,<8+9,8+9)<-7,<7,<6,<-7,6,-6,(-6,<-6)<-5,-6
<-6,,7,<-7(10,<10,10)<-9
ENJOY!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
