Creedence Clearwater Revival

Intro:

Notice: Fogerty plays chords in open position and the rhythm guitar plays
the barre ones. I have tabbed it the other way around, ie the lead guitar
plays the barre ones below.

Go back strumming Em barre fast here then comes Am barre fast and a C
barre chord is slided up to 3 - 4 times, then follows

E|------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|

Here's another part with chords B7 - C - Fmaj7 - D - G - A - Em strummed
fast.

After the solo repeat verse 1 and follow up with the strumming part above.

"Let freedom ring"

"Oh Rock of ages do not crumble love is breathing still"
"Oh Lady Moonshine down, a little people magic if you will"

This tab was created with the help of an Amiga computer and the sampling
software Audiomaster IV, under the menu effects/duration/pitch the
frequency and the pitch can be doubled, thus enabling the program to play
back the sample at half the speed but with the original pitch.
