BLUR: "CHARMLESS MAN"

Transcribed by Gary Regester (descry@erols.com)

This transcription should be fairly acurate.  I transcribed it for a student
a while back but I don't have a recording of the song to double check.  All
of the sections are written out, but not the order in which they go.  The
rhythm is mostly 8th notes.  I put a lower-case 's' over the 16th notes, so
watch for those.
