We have an official Come On tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Here is an accurate tab for Come On (Part 1) by Earl King as
performed by Jimi Hendrix on the Electric Ladyland album. I'm not
tabbing out the solos, they are best imporvised in E blues pentatonic
mostly at the twelfth fret. In addition to distortion, you'll need a wah
to get a sound something like what Hendrix did during the first solo and
here and there in the second solo.

this song isnt tuned down half a step its one of the only songs on electric ladyland to not be and the intro is ------------------------------- ---12-12-12-10-10-------------- ---12-12-12-11-11-------------- ------------------------------- ------------------------------- ------------------------------- but play them the right amount of times, i dont know much about tabbing but i got this off the book so i'm pretty sure its right, aside from that though this tab is very good.
