I Cant Keep From Crying Sometimes Tab

I Can't Keep From Crying Sometimes - Ten Years After - Recorded Live
 
Tabbed By: TheHeartbreaker
 
Sadly, I do not own the first Ten Years After album on which this is on. I do, however,
own this Recorded Live album in which they play this song. The live version consists of
a jam that lasts over ten minutes, that I knew would take too much time to tab out would
be too much for anyone to want to learn.
 
I'm guessing that the live version is fairly close to the recorded version, so this
should tab should work well with both. The only differences between the two (besides
the ten minute jam) may be that the intro is longer or there are some fills that are
put in the live version that aren't on the recorded version.
 
 
Guitar: Alvin Lee

After each “verse” is a “chorus” where the guitar does not play. Instead, the drums
and piano build up. However, right before the going back into the verses, the guitar
will play…

The main riff will start back up with the verses, or else the occasion arises where
the following will play…
e|---------5---2-------2/3/2-|

G|------/4---4---2/3-4-------|

After this, everything repeats itself until the long jam that ensues. After it is
over, this is played again until the songs ends.
