AUTHOR:
Tab annotated by Richard Grosser ([email protected])
I've written this as I couldn't find a chord tab of this tribute to "the dean of the
school of detective fiction" (NY Times).
There's infinitely more subtleties in this song, such as the slide riffs which I'll add
later revisions. Please feel free to modify to full barre or power chords to suit your
and simply the chord riffs. Corrections are most welcome!
I do trust that you'll enjoy it, as much as I did trying to unravel it!...
