Joe Satriani - Summer Song guitar tab

#

okay, this one is for all you people who had a hard time trying to read in

the last version Summer Song. This one is 100% ASCII! Same exact song,

tab, and everything else.

By the way, I'm sorry about all the little "^M"s. I don't know

why my editor stuck those in!
