By Kavil Tran

By “chirps”, I mean staccato. Use your tongue between

your teeth.

/ = bend up to the note ( /-4 for example)

/ = bend down from the note ( -2 for example)

gl = gliss ( -4 gl -2 for example)

[-4’ -4’ 5 6] = four separate notes played quickly

(quick)


Find a recording of the studio version in which the harp comes through

clearly so you can hear the details of the draws & bends.


In the intro, some moanin’ & wailin’ is done on the

-1. That is an overdub.


(Editing is impossible, so good luck figuring out where some stuff

belongs. I give up trying to get it right. It can’t be done. Most

of it is how I want it.)

(-2 -3) chirps & (2 3) (-2 -3) (-3 -4)’
