From: Sean Carey 
Subject: TAB:  Stevie Ray Vaughan, Tin Pan Alley

Author/Artist: Stevie Ray Vaughan
Title: Tin Pan Alley
Album: Couldn't Stand the Weather
Transcribed by: Sean Carey

I've been looking for this one for ages, and finally decided to
sit down and tab it out myself.  I'm pretty sure most of this is correct,
but feel free to let me know if there are any changes.

The key is C minor, and the basic chords are Cm Fm Gm.  The solos are
all basically in pentatonic minor.

By the way, in the process of tabbing this Windows notepad crashed
on me because I exceeded its 64k limit on file length.  So, I decided to 
write a program to ease the pain of writing ASCII tabs, and the result
is Instab.  It's FREE, so you may want to try it out at the address above.
