Album: The Best of Freddie and the Dreamers

Note: Thanks to mpdsal@aol.com for the complete overhaul
of this song. The lead work is mpdsal@aol.com's. Thanks to
mpdsal@aol.com for the writer's info.
****Note from mpdsal@aol.com ******
Note: This song is recorded in the key of Ab. Strange key
I know. Possibilities as to why this happend: 1. The band
tuned their instruments down 1/2 step or 2. The speed of
the master was slowed for whatever reason.If you want to
play this song along with the record and play natural
chords you can tune your guitar down 1/2 step also. In
that case just remove the flat (b) references from this tab.
Have fun.
