Song: Blackbird (Lennon/McCartney)
Artist: The Beatles
Album: The Beatles (White Album) 1968
Tabber: Vitor Ribeiro Suman (suman@elvis.com)

This song is really one of the most hard-playing I'd ever tried. The
tab already available on OLGA is a little bit harder than this one,
that I'm tabbing for "beginners". You better play it on the Acoustic
Guitar, will sound really better, but on the Electric Guitar it will
be good too.
