Redemption Song
Bob Marley
transcription by csb1@engr.uark.edu (Chris Bray)
with intro tab by pat@jaameri.gsfc.nasa.gov (patrick m. ryan)
"Redemption Song" is my favorite Marley tune, although it is not the
best example of reggae, since he's playing in more a folk vein. We
do a cover version that is more reggae style. (this is from memory
and my band has totally reworked the middle section, so forgive me
if there are mistakes...) -Chris Bray
