I was able to restore my tab of Little Martha from backup tapes
(thank goodness for backups !). Here it is again.

            Little Martha
           by: Duanne Allman

Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
 Playing notes:

 This instrumental is played in open E tuning (E B E G# B E).
 Rather than tuning the 3rd, 4th and 5th strings up (which can
 be really stressful on the neck), you can tune down to open D
 (D A D F# A D) and capo at the second fret.

 The thumb keeps time with a monotonic bass line while the
 fingers play the melody. The structure of the tune is:

   1 - Intro
   2 - Part 1 ending with [1.]
   3 - Repeat Part 1 ending with [2.]
   4 - Part 2
   5 - Repeat Part 1 up until [To Coda]
   6 - Coda

Chords used: numbers in grid indicate frets
       numbers in parentheses are suggested fingerings (1=index,2=middle,etc)
