Ronnie VanZant - Gary Rossington - Al Kooper From Lynyrd Skynyrd Nothin' Fancy Album Tabbed by David Moser creole_cat@yahoo.com   Note: The rhythm is played on electric piano and the Em chords are       arpeggiated during the verses. Listen to the song and you       should be able to figure it out. The solo is in Em pentatonic, very slow with those jabs and stabs Lynyrd Skynyrd is famous for. The outro is a dual guitar lead up at the 12th, 15th & 17th frets.

There are a lot of very intricate nuances to this song and one may have to improvise some of the fills and the lead parts. It is a great song by a great band. Improvements are welcomed and encouraged.
