The process of writing out tab for the computer takes so long that I got real lazy towards the end (actually right near the beginning)! I figured that all that time could be used learning other stuff or just getting away from it all and lazing in the sun...SO it's kinda skeletal, but I trust that you can figure it out. For those of you who didn't see the profile of Trey in the August issue of Guitar Player (a good read, BTW), he drops a hint as to some of the chords in the song... "It's a swing tune, basically a II-V-I kind of thing - Gm, Bb, Em7b5, A7b9, and then Dm". Funny thing, all those chords are in there, but I haven't found a section with 'em in that order yet. I play Dm, Bb, Em7b5, A7b9 over the "maybe so, maybe not" part.
