Matt Schofield Trio (http://www.mattschofield.net/index.html)
from Heads, Tails & Aces

*This "tab" combines some of the chords Matt plays with the organ
parts, for a little more structure and the sake of ease, since
he improvises variations of these chords most of the time.

==REPEAT CHORUS 1==

==SOLO in F==

*Solo is over one progression of the verse and chorus each

*Schofield improvises in a variety of scales that fit in the key of F,
and gets a very bluesish/jazzy fusion... try to get this by combining
major and minor pentatonic licks, chromatic runs, and the Dorian mode

*Lots of legato... his tone is very smooth with plenty of slides,
hammer-ons and pull-offs

*Traverses the fretboard up and down very quickly, and often doesn't
stay in the same position for more than a couple of riffs... so try
soloing "diagonally"

==VERSE 3==

Bb7 (x13131@1)         Bb7sus4 (x13141@1)Bb7If (x13131@1)I told you          would you believe
