Tabbed by Jamie Phillips (*)
Album: Live at the 12 Bar (and Avocet)
Tuning: EADGBE
This excellent instrumental was first recorded on "Avocet" and featured a
beautiful violin part; I tabbed it though from the live version which is
just guitar. The two are musically the same. It was hard to tell exactly
what he plays in some parts as he plays somewhat vaguely;  you should get
the general idea though. I didn't notate the string slaps he uses for
rhythmic percussion - they should come naturally if you're familiar with the
piece. The tab is divided into section A, which is repeated, and section B,
which is not. There are many fingering alternatives you could use in places.
There are a couple of natural harmonics which I've bracketed. Watch for
the occasional bar of 6/4; the asterisks are a guide and show roughly where
the beats lie. My advice would be to get the general idea of this tune and
just go with the flow without attempting a carbon copy of what Bert plays!
Hope you enjoy it :o)
