Paul Franklin - My Baby Thinks He's A Train

Henning Antonsen · Post by **Henning Antonsen** » 16 May 2000 8:57 am

Fellow forumities, I need your help !

I'm nearly going nuts trying to figure out some of the solo runs in this tune (It's on Paul's cassette "Over The Limit").

I think I've got the first 2 solo verses & the first chorus down, but that's about it.. Are all the solos done on the E9th or is there some C6th in there as well? Does anyone know, and does anyone have a tab for this monster tune? Any & all help greatly appreciated!

Well, Henning, I can't help you on this, but if you've got the first two verses and a chorus figured out... you can help us! Please post them!

Hi Sveinung,
I've been reading the forum for a while, haven't posted much though. The forum is an unbelievable source of knowledge about the steel and music in general. I'm always glad to see there's other Norwegians besides myself here, that way I don't feel so alone!

We should get in touch sometime, feel free to e-mail me.

Jim,
Like I said, I think I have the two first verses and the first chorus figured out. I'm not familiar with the tab system you use here on the forum though; where do I find it and how do I use it? I would be happy to tab out the parts I've got down.
