Lynyrd Skynyrd - "Free Bird"

I kinda stole this, so if you are Jaako, don't be angry.

Words/Music By : Allen Collins and Ronnie Van Zant

Tabbed By: Jaakko Pimperi (jakep83@yahoo.com)

I'm NOT gonna tab the solo! No way! It's too hard, but if anyone
haves it please send it to me. Some of the chords are in wrong places
but so what. There are mistakes in this tab I know there is. If you
find them please let me know cause I'm too tired to find them myself
