sorry about how cramped it was, but it seemed like a good idea
when I started typing it in.

For whoever it was that requested classical tab:
This is Beethoven's Ode to Joy.
Play with PIMA folk picking and just let yer finger fly, it is
fun and fairly easy to play.  Hope you like it as much as me...
