I've never seen a tab of this song before, and since every guitarist should know Duane's solo, here it is. There are two guitar parts: Duane Allman and Dickey Betts. Duane is playing an SG through a 50 watt Marshall Plexi 1986 bass model. Dickey plays a Les Paul through a 100 watt Plexi. Both standard tuning on this song. The tune starts out with Duane introducing it, then plays the into: D+ e----3-3-3--2/3--4--6--3-----------------| b----3-3-3--2/3--4--6--3-----------3-----| g----3-3-3--2/3--4--6--3----------3------| d--------------------------------4-------| a------------------------------/5--------| E----------------------------------------| Dickey's part during the progression: G7 C9 G7 Ab7 G7 C9 e---3/5--3----3/5--3----3/5--4--6--3----3/6--3----3/5--3--3/5--3- b---3/5--3----3/5--3----3/5--4--6--3----3/6--3----3/5--3--3/5--3- g---------------------------------------------------------------- d---------------------------------------------------------------- a---------------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------------- G7 Am7 Bm7 Bbm7 Am7 Abm7 Cm7 e----3-----5-----7-----6-----5-------5---4---5---3---6------- b----3-----5-----7-----6-----5-------5---4---5---3---4------- g----4-----5-----7-----6-----5-------5---4---5---3---3------- d----------------------------------------------------5------- a------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------ G7 C9 G7 D+ e----3-----3-----3-----------------------| b----3-----3-----3------------3----------| g----4-----3-----4-----------3-----------| d----3-----2-----3----------4------------| a----5-----3-----5-----3-4-5-------------| E----3-----------3-----------------------| Duane plays several fill patterns during the progression.
