According to an interview with Lindsey, he double-tracked the song on Rumours playing it in Dropped-D tuning, which as you say is not quite so easy. In the same interview he supplied the tab for the song and I transposed it exactly into C Wahine tuning to see how it came out. A couple of days later I found the enclosed site with exactly the same tuning and the same notes that I had worked out. It is a fuller version that you have at present and, I think, identical to what Lindsey played if in a different tuning. Hope you enjoy it if you are still at this address. If you ever manage to work out the tab for the very much slower and different live version of the song I would appreciate you letting me know. Cheers Mike Wallbridge *************** |================================| | Tabbed by Vu Le on 27-6-2001 | | v_le@hotmail.com | | Comments? | | Suggestions? | |================================| NEVER GOING BACK AGAIN by Fleetwood Mac Try my version of this song. It's sounds close to the real thing (and it's easy for me, a mediocre guitar player, to play). I included a bass guitar part and two versions of the chorus accompanyment. The first version is played in the open position (while capoed) and the alternate version is played using barre chords.
