==============================================================
The vertical lines over the tab indicate the sections - if
you focus on playing the sections individually, you can then
assemble them together into the whole piece, otherwise it's
kind of intense to keep track of....
(/ slide up)(\ slide down)(h hammer on)
Start after last "I will get by" in chorus then riff takes off

..."It's a lesson...to me..." (back into lyrics)



Song:  Touch of Grey, Solo
Artist: Grateful Dead
Album:  In The Dark

	Here's the solor for the album version of "Touch of Grey". He
plays
some of the notes very softly, so there may be some very minor
differences
as a result. At any rate, this transcription should be almost entirely
accurate. I used "CD Looper" software to help speed up the process. As
the timing is often difficult and time consuming to accurately show
throughout, I have indicated song times where it was convenient and
suggest
that you listen closely to the album while following the notation below.
I have tried, in many cases, to indicate differences in note length by
using the relative separation of the notes below.

If you have any suggestions or corrections,
please e-mail me: mah77@cornell.edu
