Little Willow tab by Paul McCartney

Tabs

^ÓLittle Willow^Ô
Written and Performed by Paul McCartney
(Flaming Pie ^Ö 1997)
Tabbed by Lindsay Stamhuis ([email protected])

This is my first shot at tabbing, but I think I did a fairly good job! This
song was already archived (by Phil Callan) but it was only the chords, so I
listened very closely to the song to get the finger-picking to sound right.
The chords below are all what he came up with, except in his tab, the Em/DEm/D
was written as Asus4Asus4 ^Ö I think the way I^Òve written it is the correct way,
his was just one string off.

For the sake of efficiency, I^Òm only going to tab the first and second
verses and the chorus, because it^Òs very repetitious. The basic structure
goes like this:

-Intro
-Verse 1
-Verse 2
-Chorus
-Verse 3 (same as verse 1)
-Verse 4 (same as verse 1)
-Instrumental 1 (same as verse 2)
-Chorus
-Verse 1
-Verse 2
-Instrumental 2
