MOUNTAIN - "Mississippi Queen" Tablature

Band: Mountain
Song: Mississippi Queen

In this tab i may have written some timing wrong but if
you know the song well enough you should get it right.
If you get stuck or find it wrong email me
the rest is 100% correct. My mates band played it at a gig
and it sounded like the original so thats how sure i am.

Rhythm Guitar

Solos
The solo is played by when there is no singing so if you are
in a band the singer should solo and the other guitarist should
play rhythm
the solo is a piece of piss easy aswell and if u cock it up
just improvise a it is mostly around the minor pentatonic scale apart from th
intro solo which you shoule play correct as it is a key element to the songs structure.
i have just written out the solo so you will have to listen the song to
know the timing
