Sun King Tab by The Beatles

Sun King tab by The Beatles

Guitar Tab

Title:     Sun King
Composer:  Lennon/McCartney
Artist:    The Beatles
Album:     Abbey Road

Here is my take on this tune from Abbey Road.  It's all my own work.  I
know that it is actually a Bass and Guitar, so this tab mixes in some of
both.  I play it with some chorus and reverb.

Tabbed by: Rob Keister
