I was able to restore my tab of Little Martha from backup tapes

(thank goodness for backups !). Here it is again.

Little Martha

by: Duanne Allman

Playing notes:

This instrumental is played in open E tuning (E B E G# B E).

Rather than tuning the 3rd, 4th and 5th strings up (which can

be really stressful on the neck), you can tune down to open D

(D A D F# A D) and capo at the second fret.

The thumb keeps time with a monotonic bass line while the

fingers play the melody. The structure of the tune is:

1 - Intro

2 - Part 1 ending with [1.]

3 - Repeat Part 1 ending with [2.]

4 - Part 2

5 - Repeat Part 1 up until [To Coda]

6 - Coda

Chords used: numbers in grid indicate frets

numbers in parentheses are suggested fingerings (1=index,2=middle,etc)
