sounds good enough to me thanks for tabbing

it sounds about right but theres a few parts which aren't exactly right. the third part is played like this: -------------------- -------------------- --------------2/4~~~ -------------------- ----5--------------- ---------3---------- and then the second time this part comes around it is played like this: ------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------10br----10br---10br--- --------------2---------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- ----5-------------------------------------------- ---------3--------2-2---------------------------- and then the next bit is exactly right, the solo that Miles plays twice is also very similar to how you have done it, in the book it goes like this: --------------------------------------------------- ----------------9--10------------------------------ --------10-------------10--11--10---------9~~------ -----9------12---------------------7---9----------- --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- and then the second time it's played it goes: -------------------------------------------------- -----------------9--10---------------------------- ---------10-------------10--11--10----7----------- -----9-------12--------------------------7---9~~~- -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- It is a great song though, and a great tab you did :)
