Tuning:Standard


Another great track from The Zombies, a demo version is available on the 'Zombie heaven' 
CD box set) An orchestrated version was also recorded by Colin Blunstone on his debut 
solo album 'One year'.

This transcription is intended to be played fingerstyle,
as there are partial chords in the break.

The chords in the break are my best guess in attempting to name them ,
the shapes are the simplest I could achieve to give some sense
of the original piece. Any corrections by the more musically literate are appreciated.
