I've been working on tabbing out a song and I think I've got all of it except one part. Could anyone help me?

It's "Sammy's Song" by David Bromberg

I can send an audio clip to someone (the whole song is one chord progession repeated) or you could try and download it somewhere.

sorry i took so long...i didnt even realize youd sent me the mail til like 20 minutes ago...i think i got it figured out...it may be in the wrong key though.

ok...ive never tried to write tab or transcribe anything before, so bear with me. i didnt figure it out exactly because i think there may be 2 guitars and the clip is kind of messed up...but if you mess around with it youll get it right.
()=im not too sure...but it sounds ok
C C/G Am G
strum strum strum strum
e (3) (3) (0) (3)
b 1 1 (3) 1 3 (1)
g 0 0 or(0) 2 or(0) 0 or
d 2 2 (0) 0 0
a 3 2 0
e 3
F Em
strum strum
e 1 (0) 0 (3)
b 1 (0) 0 (3)
g 2 or 0 or then
d 3 2 repeat
a 3 2
e 1 (hold this 0
chord twice
as long)

use the (optional) notes to lead into chords or embellish. like i said...its not note for note or anything...but it should be a good start. hope i helped!

Hello,

I'd like to learn this song. Do you recommend me following this tab or did you figure out a better way to play the song?

Thanks,
Mike

Killapede, I just now saw that you posted the tab. When I originally posted I had the first part (C through Am) but got lost after that. I also don't know what key it's in but when trying to figure it out would play it in G. Thanks.

MikeT, I would say that the tab here is a good start.
