 -- Stan Jones, 1949
 -- "rock" guitar arrangement: tcg, c.1983 (re-arranged, transcribed 7/94)
   --2/4 // Key of Am // Allegro (pretty quick)
   --heavy reverb preferred; heavy "fuzz" neat, too
   --Right-hand muffle thruout optional (required for "glisses" [see next])--
   --notation for descending (and ascending) "picked-muffled glissandos"
       approximate (it's that Surfari/"Pipeline" thing)
   --note durations: s=sixteenth note; e=eighth; e.=dotted eighth; q=quarter;
       q3=triplet quarter notes; [q]=quarter rest; [e]=eighth rest
