DONKEY RIDES, A PENNY, A GLASS
(Marriott, Laine)

B-side to 'The Universal' (Immediate, 1968)

I think the chords are right, the only bit of tab I could work out
is the intro,  the rest is too buried in the mix or impossible (like the guitar solo)

Chords used:

Acoustic guitar (left speaker)

A:   x02220  F#m:  244222
C:   332010  G:    320033
D:   xx0232  F:    133211
E:   022100
C#m: x46654

The tab for intro and chorus is:

    A (x02220@1)        C (x32010@1)        D (xx0232@1)               E-----------------------------------------------------| (022100@1)-----------------------------------------------------|
-------------75--5--5--5/7--7--7--5--7/(8)/9--9--9--|
--5/7--7--7--75--5--5--5/7--7--7--5--7/(8)/9--9--9--|
--5/7--7--7--53--3--3--3/5--5--5--3--5/(6)/7--7--7--|
--3/5--5--5------------------------------------------|
