Title: Indiana
Composers: Hanley/MacDonald
As played by Chet Atkins on "A Session With Chet Atkins"
Transcribed by Matt Cowe 2005

Here's Chet's version of Indiana from the wonderful album "A Session with Chet Atkins".
I've tried to be as accurate as possible, but some of the piano and bass accompaniment
is mixed in pretty much with the guitar, so it's difficult to tell, (especially on my
scratchy vinyl version!).
Use a thumb pick with this and make sure the melody lines ring out nice and strong.
Some of the thumb pick strokes on the 
D MajorD string hit the 
G+G string as well so watch out for
those. There's some reasonably tricksy stuff in here but it's not too bad. Take it
slow to begin with and make sure the thumb's good and secure.
Any comments/queries/corrections, feel free to email me at [email protected].
Have fun and good pickin'!

What do all the symbols mean?
-----------------------------
W - whole note (semibreve)
H - half note (minim)
Q - quarter note (crotchet)
E MajorE - 8th note (quaver)
S - 16th note (semiquaver)
T - 32nd note (demisemi quaver)
X - 64th note (hemidemisemi quaver)
? - Fret number not defined (note out of range)
If a dot appears after one of the above then it means that the note is 1.5
times as long, e.g. Q. is 3 8th notes long. Two dots means 1.75 times long.
If a '+' sign appears after a note then that note is tied to (held on to) the
next note.
