Notes:

The best way to play the b-d-e-a-a#-b bits is as follows

e ---------------------------------
b -----SLIDE----SLIDE--------------
g -4--4--/--7--7--/--9--9--2--2--3-   Repeat and
d -4--4--/--7--7--/--9--9--2--2--3-   so on.....
a -2--2--/--5--5--/--7--7--0--0--1-
e ---------------------------------

Legal Stuff:

As usual, this is my own interpretation of this piece and is intended for private study, research and scholarship, though what you could learn from
5 insane British women is quite frankly beyond me...

Say You`ll Be There coming soon...
2 become 1 coming a bit after that...
