Come On Tabs

(ver. 1)
Jimi Hendrix
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.

You got me flippin like a flag on a pole
Come on sugar let the good times roll...
