Let me know if you have a comment or correction! Have fun... A few notes:
1. I don't know how to begin to explain the timing on this, so I won't. Listen to the recording, and you shouldn't have much trouble. Most of wh= at you'll be playing here will be in the space between beats, but watch out for a few parts where there's a lot to be played in a short time. 2. I only put the last three strings for this tab, because I think that's al= l Marr is really hitting... but you ought to be able to construct the full chord, should you feel the need. I didn't try to name all of the chords either since it wouldn't do you much good anyways. "Frankly, Mr. Shankly, this position I've held..."
