GENERAL INFO
-------------------------
Song: Puerta Vallarta
Tabbed By: Zev Nevo (zev@pinkertoncampaign.com)
Description: This version of Puerta Vallarta is a bit more accurate than the
one that is up now. I hammered out the proper finger picking
patterns and believe this is either exactly how Rivers plays it,
or it's the best you're going to find. :)
HOW TO READ THE TAB
-------------------------
Sections of the song are blocked off in triple curly braces, followed by the
number of times you repeat that blocked off section.
For example: {{{ Tablature }}} 3x
That means you play the tablature blocked off in that pair of triple curly
braces 3 times, then move on to the next part of the song.
Also, each "-" space in the tab accounts for an eight note. The rhythms were
taken into account when I wrote out the tab, and the notes are spaced
accordingly.
Also, if ever you see any double digit fret numbers, it's actually 2
seperate notes. This song never goes higher on the fretboard than open
position chords.
Lastly, there are several nuances I may not have covered in the tab. These
are the kinds of things that happen when you play this song fast. Once in a
while a note or is skipped here and there. If you use this tab as a basis,
and don't try to play it perfect, you'll get the feel of how this is meant
to be played.
