Transcribed by Brian Schretzmann Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes by Paul Simon (off Graceland) Bassist: Baghiti Khumalo NOTE: I've only figured out the main groove, and two of those beautiful licks that Baghiti does. The chorus is based on F-Bb-C, but I can't pick out exactly what he's doing. "." indicate stoccato notes.
