Up Around The Bend tab by Creedence Clearwater Revival

Here it is - the best song that CCR have ever recorded with one of
the most ear-catching riffs I have ever heard. It sound so good and
it's so easy to play. It gets even better when John Fogerty's
growling vocals come into it.
I worked this out myself, so I'm not sure if it's correct

UP AROUND THE BEND - Creedence Clearwater Revival
J.C  Fogerty
Album: Cosmos Factory (1970) (can also be found on various greatest
hits compilations that CCR have released every couple of years.
Recent ones include the 21st anniversary collection (1990) and double
CD Keep on Chooglin' (1995))

By the way, does anyone have a guitar tab (not chords) for the verses
and the saxophone bit in "As long as I can see the light" from CCR.
If so, send it - I desperatly need it!.

or play that mini solo if you can - I can't!)

  Then there's this bit which is probably wrong
