Subject: TAB: Katmandu by Cat Stevens
On September 5, 1995, Harlan L Thompson submitted the chords for this song.
Here is my fingerpicking version:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Katmandu - Cat Stevens
From "Mona Bone Jakon"
Transcribed and tabbed by Wolfgang Hammer
(wolfgang.hammer@post.rwth-aachen.de)
Use Capo on 3rd fret.
The measure changes throughout the song, so I did not place
bars. The dots on top of the lines represent eighth-notes.
