Very difficult to tab Because of all the slides and volume-pedal work. This is what
I believe is played. And you have to tune the guitar to Eb9 instead of E9.

Thanks for tabbin' that, Bengt. Does Eb9 tuning just mean that everything a halftone lower?

Yes, all 10 strings down a half tone if you want to play it in the same key as on the record.

Good - so i can practice right without changing the tune and wait for a warm day to play it in tune (;-))
