This is a classic from Jimi Hendrix called Little Wing.
It's just the beginning part, but thats probably the only
part people remember it by. On the album there is no
background he just plays this by himself with a clean sound.
It takes some patience to learn it and after you learn it
you need to put some feel into it. The X's stand for a
string mute. Just mute the strings and strum all of them.
The > stands for a finger slide either up or down the string,
depending on what side of the note it is on. The ^ stands
for a hammer-on or a pulloff, again, depending on what note
it is going to. This is a pretty accurate transcription.
Email me at: 76762.1504@compuserve.com and let me know
what you think. Any criticism is welcome, but hey, go easy,
I'm only 15 years old and bad criticism could have an effect
on me later in life, or so they say. Anyway, hope you enjoy,
look forward to hearing from you.

Ok, here is most of little wing by Hendrix, if you can make sense of it.
I didn't want to write out the chords under the lyrics because someone else
did that already. If you just listen to the record, you'll get it. Feel free
to submit this to Nevada, I would if I knew how. Revisions welcome (as if
someone would get pissed if one re-wrote the tab and did a better job of it)
has anyone heard SRV's version off The Sky is Crying? Man is it awesome.
Sorry no solo. Anyways, here it is.
