			     Cou-cou - Django Reinhardt

Tuning:Standard EADGBe


This being Django Reinhardt, and thus incredibly technical and difficult to tab by ear,
just made up my own solo to it.

The solo I made is the same basic melody as the vocals in the song but you can augment
in anyway of course, that's in the spirit of jazz and Django anyway.

Throughout the song you can play the vocals on your guitar (unless you can sing in
of course). this is how I play it:
