Ooops, I made a mistake in the tab I sent out. The intro starts on the 7th fret instead of the 5th. So far thats the only mistake I know of. Sorry about the mix up, but I was going from memory. I'll sit down behind the ole ShoBud tonite and run over it to see if I missed anything else.

I've heard this song referred to often. Who does it? Or more to the point, who does the version that this tab will work for?

Thanks.

Bruce Bouton has the way he played it out in instructional form. You can get it from Scotty in St. Louis.

Thanks, guys. I had just picked up a copy of that album when I was visiting in Austin a couple of months ago... bought it for the sake of "Heartbroke" which one of my bands was doing (and wanted me to get the steel part right). Didn't realize it was on that album! It was 3 feet behind me in my computer room. It really is a great album.

Boutons version has some notes played at the 12th fret in the second half.Pete
