Passage' by William Ackerman
From the album of the same name.
Tuning CGCGAE   Capo 2nd fret

Key: h = hammer-on  p = pull-off
   / = slide to note  r = roll

Take this tab as an approximation and by no means
as gospel. I use a poor quality CD player and have
difficulty hearing the more subtle parts of this
delicate piece; but it should give an idea of what
Mr Ackerman is doing. Your fingers will probably
add bits that I couldn't hear but which make it
sound better. I also apologise for the lack of
structure in this tab but I haven't the will to
break it down properly. It is usable nonetheless.
