Octopus's Garden The Beatles
The lines are tabbed so each "-" equates to an eighth note. Where you see ~3~,
play the three notes as a triplet. Where you see ~16~, make them sixteenth notes.
Frets are numbered 0-9, and where you have to go higher, A=10th fret, B=11th and
so on. Tabbed by Michael Oxner, moxner@nbnet.nb.ca
