• Song:

    1882

  • Artist:

    Paul McCartney

This is my first tablature. I made it mostly by ear, so some of the chords may be a bit
but I think it's mostly right.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQcM0F5zGRQ ---- Demo of the song. It was never released 
an album, but Wings did a live version of it once. I'm assuming the "na na du du" sounds 
is making were supposed to be the lead guitar notes, so I may tab those out in the future.

Good night to the outlaw, but you want to be free
Good morning, oh, it's late, too late again
