        Ben Harper
     	Power of the Gospel
        live solo acoustic version from "Live From Mars"
        tabbed by Scott Abbott (abbott_scott@hotmail.com)
	Added to and re-worked by Matthew Brodie

Notes: where you see a strummed chord in the instrumental, it is actually
played as a stroke/trill, there's also a lot of hammer-ons and pull-offs.
