                        Alexis (acoustic) – James Gang
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: standard

My first tab, sorry about the sloppy structure.  You'll get it though!

This song is pretty chill.  Good for coffee houses or just hangin out.  Mess
around with the chords and add different nuances.  Also, use different scale climbs
into the different chords to add some zest if you can.  I put a few examples of what I
do, but I usually play it different every time.  I didn’t indicate timing of the chords
how many times the chords necessarily need be played in each measure.  It’s not
to decipher from the song.

Verse:  This is the basic chord progression and some examples of scale progressions into
chords.  Figure out the melody by listening to the song.  I didn’t indicate timing of
chords or how many times the chords necessarily need be played.  It’s not difficult to
