Subject: Desperado ("Organ" part)

 DESPERADO (Henley & Frey, 1973)--"Organ" Part
 =========
  
 -- guitar arrangement: tcg, 2/89
   --4/4 // Key of G // Andante (pretty slow)
   --use vibrato and/or wave effex box to mimic organ sound
   --note durations: s=sixteenth note; e=eighth; q=quarter; q.=dotted quarter;
       h=half; w=whole; [e]=eighth rest . . . 
       w>-----   --!x!=play harmonic
   --since only the "highest" four strings are played in this "melody chord"
       arrangement, the low e & a strings are omitted in the actual tab
   --chords are named according to voicings shown here; NOT rhythm-chord
       designations, necessarily (though do harmonize with "book" chords)
   --some way-up-the-fingerboard chords have been reduced to two notes
       rather than three to ease fingering on a small (my!) fretboard
   --"Organ" part begins with first "B" section ("Don't you draw the queen of
       diamonds....")
