This is a really great song, unfortunatley I don't know the intro. I will show you the
Bridge and Chorus.Mr.Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson(the composer of the song) is known for his
pitched singing yet in this song it is possible for you to drop your voice down and sing

in a lower pitch and in tune!

Please contact me at [email protected] for any mistakes or any other song you
tabbed.

The lyrics are very easy to listen to an write down if you dont know them already.

Though the live version is a bit different, it's the best I can do.
