About 95% of the credit for this tab go to "creeboy" who already submitted an awesome bass tab for this song. 
Unfortunately, like most of the Creedence-Songs, the original was too high piched for my voice.
So I transposed creeboy's original key from Eb to G. Additionally, this tab can be easily transposed to
any key by simply sliding up or down the neck. There are no empty strings picked here.
