Sting
Moon Over Bourbon Street (3:59)
The dream of the blue turtles (1985, A&M)

Thanks to Derek Barlas for transcribing this beautiful song earlier.
I brought it all up a half-step so to be able to play along
with the CD, tabbed the chords and the pipe/synth parts.
Your comments and revisions are welcomed.
Have fun, Gehan Cheung<gehanc@hotmail.com>
