Ray Charles - Three Quarter Time guitar tab

From: "Clyde W.Rothman"

This song is on Ray Charles' country album "Wish You were Here Tonight"

circa 1982 or 1983. I picked it up around 1984. It's really a good country

song -- try to check it out.

I worked this song out off the record, so it's all my own work and may not

be perfectly accurate, but it works for me. Hope it does for you, too.
