Flight Of The Wild Geese
From possibly my favourite film as a kid!!
Tab is in E
*I have heard recordings in Eb*
Finally had a stab at working this out as noone else seems to want to bother. All
I ask is that no negative ratings are given without a comment on why and I'll see
what I can do. Every correction/comment will be appreciated because I want to play
it properly too!!
