I�m not able to transcribe Jorma�s fingerpicking fills or solos. The tab below is designed to give the rhythm of this 12 bar blues in A, by using your pinkie to add a rhythm note to the A and D chords. 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_------------------------------------- B -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- G -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- D -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- A -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- E ------------------------------------- Got my questionnaire baby 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_-2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- B -3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3------- G -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- D -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- A ------------------------------------- E ------------------------------------- You know I�m headed off for war 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_------------------------------------- B -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- G -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- D -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- A -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- E ------------------------------------- 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_------------------------------------- B -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- G -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- D -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- A -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- E ------------------------------------- 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_-2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- B -3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3------- G -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- D -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- A ------------------------------------- E ------------------------------------- Got my questionnaire baby 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_-2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- B -3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3------- G -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- D -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- A ------------------------------------- E ------------------------------------- You know I�m headed off for war. 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_------------------------------------- B -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- G -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- D -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- A -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- E ------------------------------------- 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 E_------------------------------------- B -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- G -2---2---2---2---2---2---2---2------- D -2---2---4---4---5---5---4---4------- A -0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0------- E ------------------------------------- G E Well now I�m gonna do some fightin� D7 A - turnaround Well no one knows what for Turnaround - Put 3 fingers into a D7 shape with the G and E strings fingered on the ninth fret, slide down to eighth, then seventh; then play A chord, then D, Eb, E.
