Castles Made of Sand by Jimi Hendrix
====================================
Tabbed by Bucky LaDieu  Thanks Mike Kirby!

This is how I remember Noel Redding (the Jimi Hendrix Experience bassist)
played Castles Made of Sand, but my memory is probably corrupted from
hearing so many other bands cover this fantastic song.


Repeat this twice for each verse and rest during the chorus.
During the guitar solo imporv the last two measures repeatedly.
In the last verse stop playing at "And it really didn't have to stop..."

Remember Jimi wrote this.  Don't use you brain to play it, let your feelings
guide your fingers.
