This is arranged mainly for the thumb & index finger, and states
the outline of the tune. Ad libs are optional.
Where it looked necessary, I've added > marks for the beats in the
4/4 rhythym. The double bars & *'s mark the places to begin & end
repeats. (These came straight from the Bucket 'O Tab Windows soft-
ware, credited below.)
Enjoy ...
Mood Indigo
