Dream Walkin' (From the album "Dream Walkin'")
--------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard 

Like a lot of country songs the lead guitar plays a huge role in defining
the song, but here I chose to only write out the chords in an arrangement
for a single acoustic guitar player. There are some quick changes, which
I refer to as "accent chords" but you'll get the idea. Just listen to the
song for the timing and the changes. 

Key:
/    = slide up
\    = slide down
b    = bend (whole step)
b^   = bend (1/2 step)
b^^  = bend (1 1/2 steps)
pb   = pre-bend
r    = release-bend
t^   = tap with righthand finger
h    = hammer-on
p    = pull-off
~    = Vibrato
*    = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
**   = Artificial Harmonic
x    = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\)  = Dive w\bar
(/)  = Release w\bar
Tp   = Tap w\plectrum

       F (133211@1)                           C (x32010@1)With a short little note that said I had a good time,
       Dm (xx0231@1)                Bb (x1333x@1)      Am-Bb

                 C (x32010@1)         Am-Bb
If that a little secret that she keeps.
             C (x32010@1)                Dm (xx0231@1)     C-F

    Dm (xx0231@1)                  Bb (x1333x@1)      Am-Bb

          C (x32010@1)    Am-Bb
She slips in so silently.
             C (x32010@1)                Dm (xx0231@1)     C-F
