BEATLES - "octopus garden" Tablature

From: Laurence Watson <lrw@virginia.edu>



My name is Stuart Watson, and yesterday I sent you a tabbed version of
Octopus's Garden, but something went wrong with the way I wrote it.
This is the corrected version I am sending you now. Could you please
use this one instead of the one I sent yesterday. If the OLGA can't use
it, could you please send it to some other site that can? If you do,
could you please send me an e-mail about where it is, and how I can get
to it? If there are any problems, please e-mail me. Thankyou.
