Oh my goodness people. The guy goes to the trouble of doing this and you criticize, seriously go write your own tab. I will play this live and play it different every time, so what!! you think CCR plays it the same every time they play live. Jay Turser LOL says it all
i think its ironic that the people above are arguing over the same notes. 5 on the D is the same as 0 on the G.
awesome tab of an awesome song.
