This riff is played twice, and then J.J. starts singing:

                               | (2. solo starts)
          Af-ter ..|



The solo is fairly basic and follows the progression of the
verse (2 times). I'm not typing it in, 'cause you should be
able to get it off the record. If not: improvise!


OUTRO:

N.C.          |(Return to '*', repeat & fade part after '**')
              |
We're gon-na  |





I hope this helps you master this tune, and remind you that if
you should ever come across any of J.J.'s stuff: POST IT!!



Phew!!!  I only have these tunes written in music (notes), and
the converting to TAB is bugging me although I know some of it
by heart. In the following I only give you the chord
structure. I just don't have the time to do everything...
If you really have trouble figuring out some parts: listen to
the records. If that doesn't help: Send me a line and I'll try
to help.

DON'T GO TO STRANGERS From "Naturally" 1st album.
Recorded in A
Arranged in Bb

I used to have the tab for this masterpiece, but I seem to have misplaced it.
Anyway, I know the intro by heart, and the rest of the song is basically spun ar
ound the same theme.

INTRO:
                                                                optional

(Then there's a solo part over the same theme.)
(If any of you have trouble figuring this one out: Send me a mail and I'll
try to help!)

(Song starts:)

Gm                                 Bb                   C            Gm

     Don't   ..._
                                                        D7
     Oh,   ...____
                G                      Bb                  C                 G

                                  D7                    G
     Don't ...____


(Outro: Repeat & fade)
     G                  Bb                 C                 G

     I hope you enjoy it, but remember: If you want to play along with the
     recorded version you'll have to rearrange it in A.
